Bug Description
Expected behavior: when using kipi facebook plugin to export photos, it works.
Observed behavior: when the "Start upload" button is clicked, kphotoalbum crashes.
To re-produce:
- Select plugins -> export -> export to facebook
- wait for browser to be sent to auth page, copy URL
- paste the URL of the auth dialog, click OK
- Select an existing album from facebook
- click the "Start upload" button and there is an immediate crash
- Note: crash does not occur when kipi called from other app (tested with gwenview, upload successful).
When kphotoalbum is started from a terminal, I see the following output:
kphotoalbum: Symbol `_ZTVN4KIPI15Im
Interface:
QLayout: Cannot add null widget to QVBoxLayout/
KCrash: Application 'kphotoalbum' crashing...
KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/lib/

My system info:
Kubuntu, Precise Pangolin. Last updated today, Jun 17.
Using desktop environment: awesome
kphotoalbum: Version: 4.1.1-4build2
kipi-plugins: Version: 4:2.5.0-1ubuntu2

I had the same problem with Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS while trying to export to smugmug, although the only message kphotoalbum gave me on startup was: ageInfoSharedE' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking
kphotoalbum: Symbol `_ZTVN4KIPI15Im
I resolved the problem by rebuilding kphotoalbum like this:
sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev
apt-get source kphotoalbum
cd kphotoalbum-4.1.1/
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
sudo make install
Now I can run /usr/local/ bin/kphotoalbum to get my rebuilt kphotoalbum which can correctly export pictures to a KIPI plugin.
