I’m currently running 1.3+572-g538d164 which I installed from GIT a while ago 
and has had the hang problem until today (or  actually any time in the last 3 
weeks as I’ve been away and not using dt).  To be clear the hang problem has 
persisted for me through numerous dt versions from I guess 1.0 onwards whether 
installed from GIT or ppa and persisted through complete PC wipe and reinstall  
of a different o/s.   Current o/s is 64bit Mint 15 Olivia 3.7.0.7-generic.

Maybe it was gphoto2 and the Picassa message is a red herring –  whatever the 
cause I’m glad to see the problem gone though ☺

Rgds.
Rob.

Is this a git copy or any of the version that your distribution comes with? If 
the former, please try cleaning up you instalation directory and reinstall. If 
the latter, please tell us distribution and version of darktable.

Whatever it is, Picasa should not be holding your darktable initialization 
process. If anything, it is that in the latest git version gphoto2 has been 
disabled. This matches the fact that you had to unplug some USB gizmo.

Since the  Ubuntu 12.10 days, possibly earlier,  I’ve been plagued with dt 
hanging on startup and requiring some (any) USB  card reader  to be unplugged 
and reinserted to free up the hang.  This has persisted through O/S reinstall, 
upgrade to 13.04 and even a switch to Mint but now it has magically gone away!

Instead dt now starts up faster than I can ever remember and I get an error 
message at startup of:

‘[imagio load module] failed to open storage `picassa`:`init 
/opt/darktable/lib/darktable/plugins/imagio/storage/libpicasa.so: undefined 
symbol: init’

I assume this means that the hang was occuring during the picassa plugin 
processing and this is now broken.  Please don’t fix it as I can live very 
nicely without Picassa and having dt actually start up is quite handy ☺

Rgds,
Rob.
