[KPhotoAlbum] kphotoalbum crashes at start

[Miika Turkia]

Well, I don't think the kphotoalbumrc is the culprit here. Works fine
with that for me. Might be related to operating system language as
well.

Maybe you could try to get a core file and send that for analysis. Run
the following commands on a terminal:

ulimit -c unlimited
kphotoalbum -demo

On my system this will produce a file called "core" to the current
directory, however, it could end up elsewhere as well depending on the
system configuration. If you can locate the core file and send it
over, then we should have something to work with...
