Title:
Digikam imports images taken with Nikon Cameras extremely slow, takes
Was well enough today to go out and take photos and I can confirm that
the import into Digikam of images from the SD card of my Nikon D90 is
lightning fast compared to before! Even just loading the first preview
of all the photos is noticeably faster.
Importing the 63 photos took only a minute
OK, upgraded to 11.04 (Natty) beta of Kubuntu, the issue with exiv2 does
indeed appear to be solved, though I need the chance to recuperate from
hospital before having new photos to import into Digikam to confirm it's
OK there.
Here's what a repeat of the test I reported in comment #16

there's a way to put it under a different prefix if you did it by hand,
but I'm not too terribly certain there's a clean way to not replace the
old exiv2 with debian's
Ahh, it will replace the headers (the libexiv2-dev package), however the
libraries seem to be ok, as most of the Ubuntu packages I've looked at are
linked against the full so name and not the top level one.
e.g.:
ldd /usr/lib/libgexiv2.so.0.0.0
linux-gate.so.1 = (0x00137000)
Thanks guys for the answers.
I don't want to have self complied package on Ubuntu (I use it to have an easy
to maintain and up to date distro).
I will stick with my current solution which is to use an other computer that as

I did what Piotr suggested and rebuild the packages. Here is the
libkexic2 package I compiled for amd64:

Hello,
Any chances to have this bug fix in released version ?
This bug is present in 10.04 LTS and 10.10 versions and affect Nikon users (at
least those having D90 and D5000).
In my case it takes about one hour to upload 100 photos from my D90. I can't
live with that as I am doing about 500
I'd suggest not to wait for an official fix, which is expected in April,
2011, but to fix it yourself.
My solution:
- grab libexiv2-9 and libexiv2-dev from Debian testing (current version is
0.20-2) and install them,
- get source packages for kdegraphics and rebuild them,
- install the rebuild
Piotr's solution will work, however keep in mind that you may have other
packages installed that depend on exiv, in which case you'll have to
rebuild those packages with apt-source against the newer library as well
in order to be binary compatible.

Digikam imports images taken with Nikon
Excellent work Joshua, the only change I had to make to your patch (in
order to add it automatically to the build in the debian/patches
directory) was to change the references from src/$file to a/src/$file
for lines removed and b/src/$file for lines added. Look at
Unfortunately having now rebooted (for some other updates) I now find
that the patch in question causes Konqueror, Gwenview and Nepomuk to
SEGV on some images. For example this HPC-101 poster:

Chris, you probably need to recompile the other kde libraries with your
updated kexiv and exiv2 sources. Does anybody know any easy way to
produce a reverse dependency graph for apt?

Actually instead of fiddling with ldd, install all of the kdegraphics
packages under the umbrella that are compiled with the apt-sources.
Pretty sure gwenview is included in kdegraphics, see if you still get a
segfault with the recompiled version.

Chris, Adam is (hopefully) right. I recompiled all of kdegraphics
against the patched exiv2 and installed every built deb. I already
cleaned up my working dir but it was something like 20 debs. Let us
know if you try this and it works for you! (Sorry I can't test more
myself, work calls...)

I will give that a go though I'm very surprised it may be necessary, I
thought the whole point of something like libkexiv was to insulate KDE
apps from such changes, and libkexiv itself has not been modified, just
recompiled against another shared library.

My knowledge of C/C++ compilers I wouldn't say is thorough as of yet, but it's
possible it's a link time related error where the symbol tables do not line up

Well, if my bookkeeping was correct this should work, I don't
immediately see anything wrong with the patch.
The concern is that this patch is *not* a binary compatible change.
You can't simply re-compile libexiv2 and distribute that
Yep, sounds like an API incompatibility to me. Either patch and
recompile all packages against this guy (after doing a version bump on
the shared lib soname) or do the same while bumping up to version .20.

OK, given the upstream bug report (http://dev.exiv2.org/issues/show/677)
I:
1) created a patch of Andreas Huggel's fix that went into exiv2 0.20

Is there anything that can be done to help with getting this defect fixed?
From what I can see this has already been fixed in Debian, and looking at the
changelog of the package libexiv2-6 in Maverick, there was also an attempt to
get it fixed in Ubuntu.

This bug is still present in Maverick (which will be 10.10).

Yeah, what gives? Debian has had this updated in -stable for a long

I have a Nikon camera, and this bug is simply a showstopper. It takes up
to one hour to import my photos, and again one hour to geotag the
photos.

then libkexiv and digikam using apt-source, but it is still linked

Yeah, an update to .20 is necessary, as well as a rebuild of libkexiv
against the newer libexiv2 libraries. Libkexiv has several forward and
reverse dependencies so this is a task best left to the package
managers, I'm not sure how to handle it on my own for testing other than
doing everything
This is a duplicate bug report in KDE bugs, but the comments are a little more
