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 `_ZTVN4KIPI15ImageInfoSharedE' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking
Interface::uploadWidget(...) not yet implemented!
QLayout: Cannot add null widget to QVBoxLayout/
KCrash: Application 'kphotoalbum' crashing...
KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/drkonqi from kdeinit
sock_file=/home/mouse/.kde/socket-crumpet/kdeinit4__0

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:
kphotoalbum: Symbol `_ZTVN4KIPI15ImageInfoSharedE' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking

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.

Marked as invalid, since version 5.7.0 the kipi plugins are no longer included in kphotoalbum (kipi is replaced with purpose library)
