Fabien, 

i have a lot of crash reports duing of dual installations of Exiv2 releases on 
computers. Only one Exiv2 instance must be installed on computer. There is no 
binary compatibilty between old Exiv2 releases and digiKam will be fragilized 
in this case.

I recommend you to post this information somewhere in web site for users wiho 
whant to compile digiKam and co. Thanks in advance

Gilles
