Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: digikam

Hi,
I am using digiKam 1.4.0 in kubuntu 10.10 beta under wubi. When I choose 
"Import" - "USB Storage Device" and select a partition on an external USB disk 
the import window comes up but both digiKam windows freeze. The external disk 
shows activity and I can use the computer otherwise for a while. Then screen 
freezes. An remote ssh login shows that digiKam is slowly allocating more and 
more memory. I killed digiKam when it reached 3G virtual memory size and 1.5G 
memory resources (on a machine with 2G RAM and 2G swap.) However, the screen 
remains frozen and after another 10 minutes or so I reboot using the remote ssh 
connection. The situation is well reproducible and also occurs when I choose 
"Download Photos with digiKam" from the system tray. Since I cannot import my 
photo albums built up over the last decade, this issue makes digiKam useless 
for me. Unfortunately.
Any help is highly appreciated!
Cheers,
Johannes
