This is very unfortunate. :-( Problem is that Tiff parsing code (which is also used for various RAW files) was refactored so it is very hard for me to pull out exact fixes for crashes various users are experiencing.
Which changes are considered bigger risk for regression? Most of the changes are bug fixes (including several crashes). In terms of new functionality, there is new command line mode: organize (note that command line is not primary interface for libexiv2), new Nikon lens database (just table updated), translations (are they problematic for rosetta import or similar?) and build files for MSVC++. I would also like to note that exiv2 is only used by KDE applications in main (gwenview, digikam, kipi-plugins) and I do not see any GNOME/main apps dependency (so I think it is not even on Ubuntu CD). Without fixes, Kubuntu users using photo applications will have very unstable experience with Jaunty. :-( Anyway, I leave it Kubuntu core-dev's and Jonathan Riddell to drive this further. I will just use PPA for the time being. -- exiv2 version 0.18 crashes / also crashes digikam / fixed in 0.18.1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/358576 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
