sample image that is causing the crash
Here is jpg file that is causing the the crash. It is clear that libexiv
is throwing exception when it tries to parse date. This exception is not
catched in gwenview.
$ exiv2 -P X print test.jpg

So, fix is obvious. But where it should be fixed? In libexiv or
gwenview?

Title:
Regression: exiv2 0.27.3-3ubuntu1.5 makes Gwenview crash when opening
images exported by darktable
Status in Gwenview:
Unknown
Status in exiv2 package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in gwenview package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Since the recent security update of exiv2, Gwenview crashes when
trying to open image files that got exported by darktable.
Steps to reproduce:
* Make a test installation of Kubuntu 21.04 in VirtualBox
* Install all updates
* Install darktable
* Copy one of the images in /usr/share/wallpapers (or any other image) to
your home directory and open it with darktable
* Within darktable, export a copy of the image (no need to do any actual
modifications)
* Try to open that copy with Gwenview. Gwenview will crash.
I'm attaching a crash report hinting that this is related to exiv2.
Temporary workaround:
If I downgrade libexiv2-27 to 0.27.3-3ubuntu1.4, Gwenview doesn't crash, so
it seems the crash is related to changes in 0.27.3-3ubuntu1.5.
I don't know if the underlying cause is actually some bug in exiv2,
Gwenview or darktable.
Kind regards, Jan
