Hi exiv2 developers, the debian-release managers do not accept a library transition from exiv2 0.10 to 0.12 as etch is already frozen:
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-kde-extras/2006-December/002193.html http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2006/12/msg00004.html Digikam 0.9.0 rc2 requires exiv2 0.12 for good reasons AFAIU: http://www.digikam.org/?q=node/177 With digikam rc1 several people observed crashes with exiv2 0.10 in debian too. So as is, rc2 in debian etch is not possible due to missing exiv2 0.12. rc1 crashes and has therefore release critical bugs. So only 'save' option would be to go back to digikam 0.8.2. AFAICS the only way to get 0.9.0 rc2 into debian at this stage: o why is exiv2 0.10 in etch more risky that an 0.12 upgrade? o how risky is 0.10 -> 0.12 for apps using it New features of the library and superior applications using the lib are unfortunately not relevant at this stage of the debian etch release cycle.
