[gwenview] [Bug 395198] Gwenview segfaults on .JPG files created by Pentax cameras
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395198 --- Comment #5 from jin...@tutanota.de --- (In reply to Christoph Feck from comment #4) > Neon developers only provide KDE software, all other packages are maintained > by Ubuntu developers. The bug is not in Gwenview, but in libexiv2. It is probably a regression, not a dupe. I suspect a June 6 update re-broke it and I now have no idea how to fix it, roll it back, nor who to contact about it so the blame for it is absolutely meaningless to me, the end user. I don't think this bug reporting system is really set up for end users, if this experience is typical. Feature suggestion: Preferences switch to turn off access to external functions & libraries Gwenview doesn't control, especially non-essential things like EXIF data that have nothing to do with *viewing pictures*. I prefer earlier versions of Gwenview where access to EXIF data was *optional* via plugin. Until then, nomacs is installed & will have to do.

Oh, and the solution suggested is pure kludge. I officially give up on Gwenview, and Neon is starting to look decidedly unprofessional as well. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395198 --- Comment #1 from jin...@tutanota.de --- June 11 2018 Errata: Further testing shows removing as much Pentax-created EXIF data as possible using EXIFTOOL (exiftool -all= command) returns Gwenview to normal functionality with no further segfaults. This is contrary to the initial bug report description. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
