Digikam 4.0 won't run on Linux Mint 17.1: vanishes after album scan

Hi
Version 3.5 of Digikam on Ubuntu 14.04 crashed too often for my liking, so I hoped that an upgrade to a newer version would help. Version 4.0 runs fine on my Linux Mint laptop (with a small photo collection) so I reckoned that an upgrade on my desktop might be an improvement. I've just completed a fresh install of Linux Mint 17.1, which runs fine, and installed Digikam Version: 4:4.0.0-0ubuntu1~ubuntu14.04~ppa2. I've put my large photo collection (about 300 GB) in Pictures. First run routine says images will be in: /home/tom/Pictures That's correct (but any attempt to browse elsewhere leads the setup window to vanish and Digikam stops) Scanning collections was very quick (too quick, I thought) - but then nothing. Digikam didn't run, no crash report, nothing. Run Digikam again: same quick scan of albums, then nothing. I can easily upgrade to a more recent version - version 4.0.0 is the default for Mint 17.1, which is based on Ubuntu 14.04 (though 14.04 is stuck at 3.5). Should I try to add an additional PPA to install a later version? Please can anyone help? I've found Digikam a really useful program for managing a growing photo collection and now feel lost! (Yes, I did first try to upgrade to Ubuntu 14.10 - but for some reason my hardware didn't like it: Mint 17.1 installed without a hitch) Thanks!

I don't really understand your problem. "Run Digikam again: same quick scan of albums, then nothing." What does "nothing" here mean that is your problem? As I understand it digikam doesn't crash on you? If you update Digikam (or even otherwise) from a PPA or other way I suggest that you make sure that you don't use sqlite3 3.8.2 that comes with Ubuntu 14.04 as that version is buggy with Digikam. So check which version of the package libsqlite3-0 you are using. Ubunt 14.10 comes with version 3.8.6 that works much better so either install it from Ubuntu 14.10 or backport it some how.On Sat, Dec 13, 2014 at 9:20 AM, Tom Rank <[hidden email]> wrote: Hi _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

Thanks for the reply.
Sorry if I wasn't clear. When I completed the initial set up, Digikam appeared to start, and seemed to be scanning the albums - but only for a second or two, then the program vanished - no Digikam workspace, no icon on the task bar, etc. So I take that to be a crash, even though it doesn't open the error reporting window (as version 3.5 used to give me). As a temporary measure, I decided to set up Shotwell: it took about 8 hours to scan and 'import' all my images. I don't expect Digikam to take so long, but 2 or 3 seconds doesn't seem right, especially when it doesn't then display anything. I did try to load libsqlite3-0 version 3.8.6 on Ubuntu 14.04: that gave me various warnings about incompatible programs - and didn't seem to work with Digikam. I tried an upgrade to Ubuntu 14.10 - but that caused me a significant graphics problem with my hardware, so I went for Linux Mint 17.1, which had no such problem. It's based on Ubuntu 14.04, but loads the more recent Digikam 4.0.0. I'll see if I can get a more recent version of Digikam and libsqlite3-0 running and report back - I realise now how much I'm missing Digikam!

Open a shell/terminal and start digikam from there by typing "digikam" (without the "")and hit enter. Hopefully you will get some error messages there that can give clues about what's going on. I would guess that you somehow have installed KDE and/or exiv2 versions other than your installed Digikam is built against to use. Most likely you have more than one package from sqlite3 installed on your system. You might have to install/update them at the same time with the same install/update command (not install one of the sqlite3 packages and then the other) to not have a conflict as they depend on each other. Shouldn't conflict with other packages but it's own version.On Sat, Dec 13, 2014 at 11:59 PM, Tom Rank <[hidden email]> wrote: Thanks for the reply. _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

Hi Philip
Thanks for the two suggestions. First, here's the error report when I ran Digikam 4.0.0 from a command line: digikam(8068)/kdeui (KIconLoader): Error: standard icon theme "oxygen" not found!

So: I then followed your suggestion to look at Dmitri Popov's solution, which is at: http://scribblesandsnaps.com/2014/12/12/making-digikam-stable-on-ubuntu-14-04/ I downloaded the two packages and tried to install the first - but got this error message (I was installing the amd64 package for my AMD64 system): Preparing to unpack libsqlite3-0_3.8.6-1_amd64.deb ... De-configuring libsqlite3-0:i386 (3.8.2-1ubuntu2) ...

Or do I ignore this and go on to install sqlite3_3.8.6-1_amd64.deb? Sorry - I don't pretend to be a super-user! But I do want Digikam to work - I've been reduced to using Shotwell and am missing a lot of features that I'd become used to in Digikam.

The error from when you start digikam suggest that something is missing when it comes to KDE runtime files. Try to install the package "kdelibs5-data" and see if that helps. And yes you need some base packages as both i386 packages and amd64 packages to get 32bit compatibility. sqlite3 is one of those packages. Therefore installed both i386 and amd64 versions of it as suggested by the error message when you tried to update them.On Sun, Dec 14, 2014 at 11:42 PM, Tom Rank <[hidden email]> wrote: Hi Philip _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

Hi Philip
Thanks for your patient and helpful responses. I've made some progress: installing kdelibs5-data did indeed get Digikam started (it's odd it wasn't already there, as this is a clean install the same day of Linux Mint 17.1). I also installed both the i386 and amd64 versions of the libsqlite3-0 and sqlite3 packages - and the system seemed happy with those. However, although Digikam 4.0.0 now loads and seems to scan the albums, so that all the folders are listed in the Albums pane, it won't show the images - the display pane is blank and no files are listed. I then tried to install the latest version, adding (as advised) these ppa locations (and their sources): deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/philip5/extra/ubuntu trusty main deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/philip5/kubuntu-backports/ubuntu trusty main Yet despite running sudo apt-get update - and sudo apt-get install digikam ... all that's installed is version 4.0.0 again. Do I need to change "ubuntu trusty main" to "ubuntu utopic main"? I hesitate to do this without checking in case I break something else!

Re: Digikam 4.0 won't run on Linux Mint 17.1: vanishes after album scan

Good to know that you are having progress. I don't use Linux Mint so I'm not sure which versions are based on which Ubuntu versions. You should use trusty if your Linux Mint is based on ubuntu 14.04 and utopic if it's based on Ubuntu 14.10.On Mon, Dec 15, 2014 at 7:18 PM, Tom Rank <[hidden email]> wrote: Hi Philip _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

Hi
Thanks again. Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu 14.04, and my version uses KDE 4.14. I've added the "extra" and the "kubuntu-backports" PPAs to my software sources - but it still loads version 4.0.0, which has the problem that it won't show my photos. I even tried: sudo apt-get install digikam=4.5.0 But it replied: E: Version ‘4.5.0’ for ‘digikam’ was not found With other software, I recall that adding an extra PPA gave me the newest version when it was not available in the official repository. That doesn’t seem to be happening here. Thanks for any help!

If you don't have it available then something is wrong how you added the repository. Maybe you don't have included the PPAs key that makes the PPA trusted? This can be done automatically if you use the add-apt-repository command: If digikam is installed before then:sudo add-apt-repository ppa:philip5/extra sudo add-apt-repository ppa:philip5/kubuntu-backports (only use this PPA if you are sure that you use KDE 4.14 and not with KDE 4.13) sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade On Mon, Dec 15, 2014 at 9:42 PM, Tom Rank <[hidden email]> wrote: Hi _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

Hi Tom,
I am running DK 4.5 on Mint 17 Qiana 64 bit and it seems to be fine. PPA's deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/philip5/kubuntu-backports/ubuntu trusty main deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/philip5/kubuntu-backports/ubuntu trusty main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu trusty main deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu trusty main Synaptic lists digikam as 4:4.5.0-trusty~ppa1kde414 Let me know if there is anything I can tell you about my system.

Hi Mick
Thanks: it seems that this must be possible. My version is Mint Rebecca (17.1) - which should be the same, and I think my PPAs are the same too, but I don't seem able to force Mint to install the newest version. It's late here now, so I'll check everything properly tomorrow.

In reply to this post by Mick Sulley
Hi Mick
Thanks: it is helpful to know you're running DK 4.5 on a similar system. In fact, my laptop is running Mint 17.1 and Digikam 4.0.0 without complaining - but it only has a dozen photos to handle, and there isn't room to install my photo collection on the laptop, even if I wanted to. However, now I've had time to look at it carefully, it hasn't got me much further. Your list of PPAs includes: http://ppa.launchpad.net/philip5/kubuntu-backports/ubuntu trusty main http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu trusty main But not this suggested by Philip: ppa:philip5/extra Anyway, using the PPAs suggested by Philip (ppa:philip5/extra and ppa:philip5/kubuntu-backports), I've again reinstalled Digikam - but still only get 4.0.0 (with KDE 4.14.2)- and still it won't open any image folders, and won't show any images, JPEG or RAW. Using right click on a folder (where I know there are images) or the menu item 'open in file manager' just crashes the program. Here are some reports from the terminal: It seems I have installed: Qt: 4.8.6 KDE Development Platform: 4.14.2 digiKam: 4.0.0 Suggested additions at install time included: digikam-doc systemsettings libqt4-sql-mysql hspell kdelibs5-plugins [Should I install these myself?] Error messages on running: digikam(14417)/kdeui (KIconLoader): Error: standard icon theme "oxygen" not found!

So it seems I still have things missing. Is this information any help to someone better informed than me? Thanks!

Could you run this commands from a terminal/shell and tell me what it outputs (without the "")? It should display all the versions of digikam that your system have in its resources available for apt to install. If you use both my PPAs it should display them both as possible versions and also other older versions."apt-cache policy digikam" On Thu, Dec 18, 2014 at 12:11 AM, Tom Rank <[hidden email]> wrote: Hi Mick _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

Hi Guys,
For comparison purposes this is what I get on my running Mint DK4.5 system mick@MintDesk17:~$ apt-cache policy digikam digikam: Installed: 4:4.5.0-trusty~ppa1kde414 Candidate: 4:4.5.0-trusty~ppa1kde414 Version table: *** 4:4.5.0-trusty~ppa1kde414 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/philip5/kubuntu-backports/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 4:4.0.0-0ubuntu1~ubuntu14.04~ppa2 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages 4:3.5.0-0ubuntu10 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/universe amd64 Packages mick@MintDesk17:~$ Mick On 18/12/14 09:00, Philip Johnsson

Mick, You should add my "extra" PPA too as source if you want to be able to use my packages in the future, even though it might happen to work for you now. My kubuntu-backports PPA only have packages that need to be rebuilt against an updated version of KDE than found in standard Ubuntu of that release version (i.e trusty, utopic, etc). The "extra" PPA will always be my main PPA that might have updated packages not found in my kubuntu-backports PPA but that it will depend up on.

Philip,
Thanks for the advise, I have added the "extra" PPA and everything appears to still be working, which is always a bonus :) I now see - mick@MintDesk17:~$ apt-cache policy digikam digikam: Installed: 4:4.5.0-trusty~ppa1kde414 Candidate: 4:4.5.0-trusty~ppa1kde414 Version table: *** 4:4.5.0-trusty~ppa1kde414 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/philip5/kubuntu-backports/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 4:4.5.0-trusty~ppa1 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/philip5/extra/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages 4:4.0.0-0ubuntu1~ubuntu14.04~ppa2 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages 4:3.5.0-0ubuntu10 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/universe amd64 Packages mick@MintDesk17:~$ Mick On 18/12/14 09:38, Philip Johnsson
