If you find bug, use KDE bugzilla.

http://www.digikam.org/contrib
 

Is it possible to generate XMP tags from the digikam database tags ?

It's done automatically by digiKam in background when you change something in image. You can use Tool Sync Metadata Database option to process whole collection.

Thank you for the answer.
So there is a bug regarding the generation of XMP files : if I activate any copy
of information in the tags, then the application crashes with the message :

digikam: symbol lookup error: digikam: undefined symbol:
_ZN11KExiv2Iface6KExiv216setWriteRawFilesEb

if I want to apply a new tag to a picture.

If I want to synchronize the whole collection I have the same error.

Is this related to the fact that I work mainly with raw files ?

In the contrib page you provided, it is recommended to provide a GDB backtrace.
The problem is that I work with a precompiled version as I have never been able
to compile digikam on my system.

Regards

Frederic

It's a binary compatibility problem with libkexiv2.

Sound like your digiKam have been compiled with another version of libkexiv2.

I recommend to recompile all yourself using libkdcraw, libkipi, and libkexiv2 from svn trunk, and after recompile digikam and kipi-plugins. Look here for more info :
