[Daniel Bauer]

Hello,

I have a working install now (not tested a lot though...)

So, here's what I found out:

After deinstalling all of the above the program run without crashing (without 
a previous fresh compile). So I installed one after the other again and 
everything went fine untill I installed the kdegraphics3 package ("Base 
Libraries for KDE graphics applications". Having that installed digikam 
crashed. 

I tried several times to install and uninstall kdegraphics3 and it is clearly 
reproducible: when it's installed, digikam crashes, when it's removed, 
digikam works. 

I have installed all other things again (digikam, libkdcraw,  libkexiv2, 
libkipi, kipi-plugins, exiv2), even kdegraphics3-imaging (because I like 
kuickshow) - and it still works. It's just the kdegraphics3 basic package 
that causes the crash.

I did that, but I think there is not a lot of info. Would I have to delete all 
the svn-stuff before compiling it with the debug option? (I just run the 
modified compile-digikam.sh with the --enable-debug=full added to the two 
configure lines without deleting anything first). If it is necessary to first 
delete everything to find out more, tell me, and I'll do it.

Well here's what came out (kdegraphics3 installed, the crash now already 
occured when trying to display the album previews, directly after starting):

now: better go out and enjoy the beautiful spring weather this sunday :-)

Oh: it would be helpful if it was possible to have it running with 
kdegraphics3 installed because of the ksnapshot tool which is in there - I 
used this quite often...
