NikonPreview?

Tim Jenness
Do these errors:

Error: Directory NikonPreview with 2020 entries considered invalid; not read. 
Error: Directory NikonPreview with 2020 entries considered invalid; not read. 
Error: Directory Panasonic with 3500 entries considered invalid; not read.    

indicate a problem with my libkexiv2 library? I'm running beta2 but I also got them from v0.10.0. I initially thought I had a seriously corrupt hard drive but a search indicates that this error message cropped up in March on the digikam mailing list. Is there any further comment on the problem? I assume it means that the XMP information has not been written correctly. It occurred when I tried to sync metadata with database. I had only edited two images with v0.10 before upgrading to beta2 so most of the files I have do not have XMP information in them, just IPTC keywords written by v0.9.x

This is not libkexiv2 messages, but Exiv2 library.

Try with to use last Exiv2 0.18.2... Do not mix old Exiv2 in your
computer, and check which Exiv2 is used in digiKam by Help/components
Info menu.

Note : updating Exiv2, you need to recompile libkexiv2. if you use
more recent libkexiv2 code, digiKam and co need to be recompiled too.

So if we build exiv2-0.18.2, we also need to rebuild kdegraphics and
digikam afterwards? Anything else?

OK. Sadly Fedora is still at exiv2-0.18.1. So any updates of
kdegraphics will need to be rebuilt manually, if I'm alert enough to
notice.
