--- Comment #4 from Michael Reed <mike at unmusic.co.uk> ---
I wonder if this could be related to a problem that I have had with Digikam and
my current camera body?

Basically, my current camera body specifies itself as "OLYMPUS IMAGING CORP."
rather than "Olympus Imaging Corp." in the metadata. This seems to confuse the
software. 

To remedy it, I opened /usr/share/lensfun/mil-olympus.xml in a text editor (as
root) and changed the <maker> field to upper case. Things seem to be working
properly now. Note that it would crash while doing the lens correction if I had
two entries that were identical other than the case of the <maker> field.

This gives an exact match for the E-PL5 body with its kit zoom. With the
Olympus body and a Panasonic lens, it guesses wrong but the right lens is now
available on the drop down.

I've had some other crashes with Digikam and files from this body, and I'll
play around to see if this solves them.

Kubuntu: 14.04
Digikam: 4:4.0.0-0ubuntu1ppa0~trusty
liblensfun0: 0.2.8-1
