There is a problem in your computer about libkexiv2 from KDEGraphics component.

digikam: symbol lookup error: digikam: undefined symbol:
_ZN11KExiv2Iface14AltLangStrEdit15setLinesVisibleEj

binary compatibility is broken between packages. digiKam have been recompiled
with another libkexiv2.

Do you have more than one libkexiv2 on your computer ?

Hey!
Yes. I found two libkexiv2-installations. The first is "libkexiv2-10" (for KDE
4.7.1)
and the other "libkexiv2-9" (for KDE 4.6.0). I deleted the last one, but
nothing happened basicly. The newer one is necessary for KDE 4.7.1!

digiKam and co need to be recompiled to adjust linking properly...

Hi!
I can confirm this issue (Kubuntu 11.04, KDE SC 4.7.1, digikam 2.2.0)
There are two versions of libexiv in the ubuntu repositories:

libexiv2-6
libexiv2-10

Both I have installed.

Which version of libexiv2 do I need for digikam 2.2.0?

Regards
Oli

This depand of package used to compile digiKam. Both are certainly no binary
compatible. At least, the last one is always better...

Ask to your distro team for technical details.

For people having the crash on openSUSE using the _unsupported_ KDE:UpdatedApps
repo.

Updated packages are underway. Possibly already available as I write, depending
on your architecture.

Make sure you also update libexiv2-11, libkdcraw20 and libkipi8 to the versions
provided by the KDE:UpdatedApps repo.

To be sure you have the correct set of packages update using:
'zypper dup --from
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/UpdatedApps/openSUSE_11.4/'

These are the packages you should have installed:

cb400f@worKstation:~> rpm -q digikam libexiv2-11 libkdcraw20 libkipi8
digikam-2.2.0-16.1.x86_64
libexiv2-11-0.22-3.1.x86_64
libkdcraw20-4.6.25-500.1.x86_64
libkipi8-4.6.25-500.1.x86_64
cb400f@worKstation:~>

And please, if you have these types of installation problems with unsupported
repositories, ask on the opensuse-kde mailinglist or irc-channel before filing
bugreports upstream.

It's not valid with any version of digikam on openSUSE.

It's people with inconsistent installations and often also mixing incompatible
repositories.
