I'd suggest not to wait for an official fix, which is expected in April,
2011, but to fix it yourself.

My solution:
- grab libexiv2-9 and libexiv2-dev from Debian testing (current version is 
0.20-2) and install them,
- get source packages for kdegraphics and rebuild them,
- install the rebuild libkexiv2-8 package (no need to update the other ones),
- you might want to mark this package "hold" in order to prevent it from being 
updated, at least until it gets fixed in Ubuntu.


** Changed in: kdegraphics
       Status: New => Confirmed
