Package: exiv2 Version: 0.10-1.4 Severity: wishlist Peter,
There is a new upstream release of exiv2, which fixes some crashes for digikam, per the attached changelog. I have now injected the exiv2 debian/ into http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-kde/kde-extras/exiv2/ and propose to release and manage this new upstream release from the kde-extras team, which you are welcome to join. This would be the 7th NMU of your package. If you are interested in co-maintenance, please have a look at our README: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-kde/kde-extras/README?op=file&rev=0&sc=0 Mark Changes from version 0.12 to 0.13 --------------------------------- * Exiv2 utility - 0000504: [tools] exiv2 utility: allow use of -M and -m options with extract and insert actions. * Exiv2 library - 0000503: [metadata] Tiff generated by photoshop crashes exiv2 (digikam bug 139658). - 0000502: [iptc] New TIFF parser: Decode IPTC from Exif.Image.IPTCNAA.
