[Digikam-users] digikam 0.9.0-rc2 initial feedback

[Sami Cokar]

Hello,

I've downloaded digikam 0.9.0-rc2 from SVN onto Kubuntu feisty.

0) compiling/installing into home directory:  scripts did not compile 
digikam or install exiv, digikam, digikamimageplugins.

I changed my scripts to:
   make -j 4 install

in order to be able to compile, install, and use digikam

1) Page Down goes sequentially through album images rather than performing 
"page down" of album images, no ability to configure via shortcuts

2) When are thumbnails generated? as I view album images or "behind the 
scenes"?

3) when viewing album images, why do thumbnails only load for the "page" of 
images you are looking at rather than all at once time? memory/performance 
reasons?

4) view your large album, accidently click in "my albums" window (but not on 
an album) -- thumbnails 'disappear' and album is "unselected"; go back into 
that album and thumbnails re-load (which takes 'time')

5) "Warning: Directory Canon has an unhandled next pointer."  in terminal 
window when I go into an album of Canon RAW files

6) "Warning: Size 5352 of Exif.Canon.0x4002 exceeds 4096 bytes limit. Not 
decoded." in terminal window each time I click on a RAW image

These RAW images are from a Canon EOS Rebel 350D


Thank you.
