I am having issues in Edit

carl33914
I have recently updated my openSUSE 12.3/KDE 4.10.5 machine to DigiKam
3.3.0.

I find that frequently the Edit-Enhance-Local Contrast tool hangs or
fails to initialize.
I see no progress in the lower left corner of the window.

Interestingly, Local Contrast runs fine on the same image using the
Batch Queue Manager.
And, I believe, it runs much faster.

Any thoughts or similar results?

It appears to me that digikam seems to have issues in each release, that are
already fixed for the next. Maybe a small beta or rc period would be nice?

But will everything work? With 3.2, there was some issues, and there are also
some with 3.3. Can we users help by testing up to the release?

Re: I am having issues in Edit

Gilles Caulier-4
yes both have a problem.

In fact in 3.2 a long time problem have been present in plugins init.

In 3.3 i fixed some type of plugins, but i forget to check all others,
thinking that will be fine. My apologies.

I review whole implementation relevant of all plugins init and removed
all time latencies and race conditions. I checked all on slow and
speed computers. All is fine now.

I'll look forward to 3.4, then :)

Right now I just hope there will be a functional package in chakra before too
long...

In reply to this post by Gilles Caulier-4
Thanks for the update and all your efforts, Gilles.

While I applaud  with Anders' intent, I would probably opt for what we
have currently, incremental "production" releases with perhaps a few
buglets.
When something really goes poorly, one can easily(usually) back up to a
prior "more acceptable" release.
An issue I would have with "testing" releases would be that it almost
requires a dedicated machine (or perhaps a dedicated VM) to test in
parallel while running a "production" environment as well. Keeping
releases isolated on the same machine is difficult(IMHO)

Re: I am having issues in Edit

Andreas Weigl
Hi

beside, there are always beta releases before a final release. 
Only thing is if nobody tests them then bugs wont be found.

I am certainly not the person for it but if there are some on the mailing list who would like to test beta releases independent from Gilles, then the major releases might have a better quality. Not that I say it is poor quality but that prevent the use of a function, that is used a lot can be a big minus for a software.

I think we all love digikam so if someone can set up a "digikam release testers" group ... go for it.

Andy

Why not download the beta code and build your own beta version? With
most distros it's quite easy to rebuild a package and install it, if it
causes enough trouble then it's easy to downgrade back to the previous
release.

Re: I am having issues in Edit

In all case checking out source code from git/master is always the
most easy way to test and report, and test quickly when a fix is
commited.

You just need to solve dependencies to compile. It's not difficult.
It's just few devel packages to install after all.

The process to compile is just few line of code to run in the console.
It's explained here :

NOTE : About this problem of wrong init of image editor tools. Look on
the bottom/left, in status bar of editor, there is a progress bar
which still to 0% when tool is loaded at the first time. beside
progress bar, there is a cancel button. Just press it, et voilà, init
will be done. Close tool and restart it. This time, there is no frozen
state.
