gwenview freezes when opening a image or folder

[Philip Macpherson]

Binary package hint: kdegraphics

If I open a image it loads it at the default zoom. The cursor anywhere in the window is the hand usually assosiated when moving the picture around. (i.e. it doesn't change like it normally does) None of the buttons work, including zoom or trying to move the picture around. It stays like this for up to a minute using around less than 10% cpu. If I try and quit during this time it takes a while before the force quit appears instead of exiting normally. After a while it starts working normally.

It also does the same freezing when I open gwenview in folder view. It's fine when first opened in /home. But if I go up a folder or try and go to any in the folder tree then it freezes for around a minute before finally loading it and further time to generate thumbnails.

Hi there!

Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https://bugs.kde.org, so that the KDE developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.

Thanks!
