Bug#664085: digikam: eats all memory when trying to import fotos (Canon 20D)

jurriaan
Package: digikam
Version: 2:1.9.0-3+b2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

*** End of the template - remove these lines ***
When I try to import fotos from a Canon 20D (which I do infrequently, so last test was last month or so) in this way:

start digikam
connect camera
switch on camera
import from digikam using auto-detected Canon 20D

I get a new window 'Canon EOS 20D' which has a moving bar at the left bottom.
No pictures from the camera appear. In 30 seconds, the digikam process in top goes to 7 GiB RES and my system crawls to a halt.

On shutting down the camera, digikam becomes 'unstuck' and reports that it is trying to download thumbnails, which of course fails. I do get a nice list of pictures that are in the camera, but since the camera is now off, I can download nothing. The camera uses a Compact Flash card of 8 GiB, the import window in Digikam claims 100 pictures, mostly .JPG, some .CR2.

I don't have an adapter to read this compact flash card without the camera.

Importing fotos in windows (using Canons own program) works fine.

This used to work fine in Linux as well, up until a month ago or so.

Kind regards,
Jurriaan
