For tracking the upstream report... If you encounter this problem with digikam-2.0.0, please leave a report here. No earlier versions!!!
May be fixed in digikam-2.0.0-r1, please try that...
still experiencing crashes with 2.0.0-r1, but one workaround mentioned in the upstream discussion works for me: media-libs/opencv -ieee1394
Downstream report: https://bugs.sabayon.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2681 We have media-libs/opencv +ieee1394 in our tree.
Upstream bug comment #68
(In reply to comment #4) I think the link should go to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=268267#c68 . The patch for media-libs/libdc1394 worked fine for me. I have not tried -ieee1394 with media-libs/opencv.
I added the patch to libdc1394-2.1.3-r1 and bumped the version dependency in opencv and kipi-plugins accordingly. This should be fixed now (please make sure you really have the above libdc1394 version before you report the problem again).
