[Bug 508843] [NEW] ubuntu shouldn't package beta version of digikam; needs upgrading to fix >200 bugs, and in particular import crashes #8 most reported KDE bug ever.

[Stephen Warren]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: digikam

Please see here for background:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=223059

The digikam in Ubuntu Karmic is a beta version with a huge number of
known bugs (>200). It needs to be upgraded to the 1.0.0 release to solve
them all. In particular, I'm experiencing the #8 most "popular" bug in
KDE's history, which prevents digikam from usefully implementing the
whole photo import/management process.

I have photos from a camera on an SD card plugged into a USB reader. In
digikam, I go to the menu: Import -> USB storage devices -> and select
the USB device. digikam crashes. See the KDE bug for the full crash
details.
