digikam

[gch3]

Digikam has all of a sudden quit opening, neither in the list or off the desktop icon. Is it digikam or an update done the last couple of days. Gwenview and other graphics are working fine.

[sturmvogel]

Any terminal output?

[gch3]

Illegal request ( core dump) all I see in terminal. Tried re-installing and it install i586 for some reason. Got x86 going same results. Starts to open then hangs.

[morgano]

That bug 32102 seem to be only about 32-bit version not opening. And that started more than a half year ago.
You say it was for you recently working on i586, bot now it fail both i586 and x86_64.
I have added that to the bug, and asked that reporter to try now, and i suggest a package update to start.
For me on x86_64 Digikam starts but this is first time i use it on Mageia 9.

[isadora]

this is on an x86_64 build using plasma. reinstalled the correct build and uninstalled i586 version. bug looks like on a 32bit system which I can't use but similar results. application does not show in applications after install. Latest problem appeared after installing updates last week involving lib files

Either your output from above from /usr/share/applications is incomplete, from a different directory, or your system is pretty broken
This is from a regular plasma installation:

Only thing I see different is it's removing digikam-1:8 and installing digikam-8.0 . Program worked always till last weeks updates. Guess I'll use gwenview.

[doktor5000]

The 1: in front of the version is an Epoch. You also don't need to provide the version to those commands, the package name is enough.

Although even though you reinstalled the package, I don't see any try about opening it afterwards.

[gch3]

I did with same results. Complete application does not seem to be installing . beats me whats going on just used it for years and worked fine even after upgrading to Mageia 9 a couple of months ago. Noticed the problem after doing some regular upgrades a couple of weeks ago. Which ones those were exactly I don't really remember. Thanks for your responses. I'm not a wiz, as you can probably tell, at linux but been using Mageia since back in the Mandrake days. One of these days I hope to get the time to gain a better understanding and can analyse these things better myself.
