[Digikam-users] Fix for Crash saving JPEG and PNG in WinVista64 - libjpeg.dll??

[Steven Zegas]

I have a crash in Showfoto every time I try to save JPEG (and PNG). I 
realize this is an old issue, but I cannot find a fix. Is there a fix??

 From reading the blogs and bugzilla, I believe the issue is related 
to LIBJPEG.dll. 
http://osdir.com/ml/windows.gnu.user/2006-12/msg00008.html However, 
this .dll is not installed in my system (in any of the installation 
attempts I did; at least with this filename.)

I am using KDE Win Installer - I tried various mirrors, several 
versions of KDE, several versions of Digikam/Showfoto, and all 
compiler options. I am always getting the same crash. (Some packages 
install OK and the application does launch; some installations do not 
launch - that is another issue.)

My installation is:
Showfoto Version 1.1.0
compilerType=2
MirrorWithReleasePath=http://mirror.cc.columbia.edu/pub/software/kde/stable/4.4.0/win32/
