I have exactly the same issue.

[Jenny Torango]

Same here. I finally gave up and re-installed back to 1.9 and re-built my database.

That's my bad in packaging. I made a workaround for the problem to use the import camera feature in beta4 by preloding libusb.so. Otherwise beta4 crashes if you try to import from a device that use libgphoto as backend. I pointed the preload to a file that is only in package libusb-dev. I'll upload a fix for this but meanwhile you can install libusb-dev to make it work again. You can also start digikam from command line.

If anyone wonders the preloading happens in /usr/share/applications/kde4/digikam.desktop that I tweaked in beta4 as a workaround. I think there is a real fix for the bug I made the workaround for will be available in beta5.

Sorry for the mishap.

Phillip , Thank you for the response and all the work you have done on this. It's excellent!

Launching from the terminal does allow Digikam to run.
I have libusb-dev installed but still can't launch from the menu.

I still get "Could not launch digiKam
Failed to execute child process "LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libusb.so" (No such
file or directory)"

The file does exist
$ locate libusb.so
/lib32/libusb.so
/usr/lib/libusb.so

[Philip Johnsson]

The update on my kubuntu-backports PPA is now available. This problem in all cases should be fixed on Ubuntu 10.10 with digikam2 package 2.0.0~beta4+maverick~ppa3kde46 and you don't need libusb-dev with the update. If more people have this kind of problem I'll remove the workaround but it should work (works fine for me here).

Have anyone with this problem tried the update and if so could he/she confirm if it solved the problem or if it still remain.

The update did not make a difference for me.

I still get "Could not launch digiKam

[Philip Johnsson]

If you still get "Failed to execute child process "LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libusb.so" (No such file or directory)" after the update there is something wrong as there shouldn't be any more references to /usr/lib/libusb.so anymore but "/lib/libusb-0.1.so.4"

Are you sure that no packages are hold back or something that when you update? Make sure that the package version number of package digikam2 is 2.0.0~beta4+maverick~ppa3kde46.

I did an apt-get --purge remove digikam2* kipi*

I then reinstalled digikam2

I still get "Could not launch digiKam
Failed to execute child process "LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libusb.so" (No such
file or directory)" when launching from the menu.

~$ sudo dpkg -l | grep digikam*
ii  digikam2                                      2:2.0.0~beta4+maverick~ppa3kde46                  digital photo management application for KDE
ii  digikam2-data                                 2:2.0.0~beta4+maverick~ppa3kde46                  digikam architecture-independant data

i'm not sure what is happening but if it's just me then obviously something is wrong on my side.

[Philip Johnsson]

Look if you have saved a custom menu entry for Digikam. Check in ~/.local/share/applications/ if you have a file called kde4-digikam.desktop or maybe digikam.desktop. In that case it's a user saved menu entry that overrides the updated system wide menu. If you have it and remove it you might need to log out and in again to repopulate the menu with the system wide version of the menu file.

If you do this with the KDE Menu Editor you should have "LD_PRELOAD=/lib/libusb-0.1.so.4 digikam -caption "%c" %i" in the field "Command:" for the Digikam menu entry. The "LD_PRELOAD=/lib/libusb-0.1.so.4" is a workaround against crashes in beta4 when you try to import images from a camera that uses libgphoto2, usually PTP cameras. The old workaround was "LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libusb.so" but shouldn't be used by non developers.

Hope this make any sense.

David,

That warning you get is something else and have nothing to do with this problem with the workaround or packaging. If the workaround brings problems to some I might better remove it but then beta4 will crash when you try to import pictures from many cameras.

Interim feedback:

Did not yet try the latest idea but after making today's update I still
had the identical problem message.

DK does start from the terminal with "digikam" command but also signals
the following error:
"david@david-desktop:~$ digikam
KGlobal::locale::Warning your global KLocale is being recreated with a
valid main component instead of a fake component, this usually means you
tried to call i18n related functions before your main component was
created. You should not do that since it most likely will not work
QSqlDatabasePrivate::removeDatabase: connection 'ConnectionTest' is
still in use, all queries will cease to work."

I will now try Philip's workaround and see what occurs.

David,

Do you get any error messages if you start Digikam 2.0 beta4 from command line with this as command "LD_PRELOAD=/lib/libusb-0.1.so.4 digikam" (without the "")?

Looks like the problem for you is with preload. Btw, are you using Digikam with KDE or Gnome?

Not fully tested but:

Simply created a new application named "Digikam 2.0 Beta" with the
command "digikam"

This appears to function ... at least it opens correctly.
