This bug has already been reported by me and fixed for 6.4
To be honest, it just disappeared for 6.4, bit I could not find an action
leading to that. According to "ldd -v /usr/bin/digikam" output digikam 5.9.0
had a dependency on libhdf5_serial_hl.so.100, but 6.4.0 does not. I may have
missed it, but I do not see any change on debian/control leading to this
change. Not to mention that it seems present again in experimental 7.0.
As bug that you do not understand why it is fixed has good chance to
reappear at the worse moment ;-)
My guess is that digikam is being affected by some obscure dependency
changes in the build chain about the libhdf5 stuff and what is pulling it.
digikam seems to use this hdf5 stuff if present and not use it otherwise.
I wonder what is the benefit of using it, 6.4.0 works without it.
Probably because the symbol table was correctly upgraded... This is what
does the dependency utimately.
