gwenview 2.4.3 using KDE 4.4.4 (from an update 11.2 to 11.3 yesterday)
Gwenview will not rotate images using exif information like it used to do in 11.2. It leaves landscape images as they are and gives 'failed to rotate' on any portrait images.
Various nikon cameras tried all with the same result.
Can anyone help?
Hi Lynn, I had a similar problem with digikam 1.2.0 on a freshly installed openSUSE 11.3 (x86_64). Images were downloaded from a camera but were not auto-rotated like digikam used to do with pictures in portrait mode. When I tried to rotate them manually from within digikam, I got the same error message "Failed to rotate image". After a little bit of Googling I found out that the problem may be caused by the JPEGlossless kipi-plugin interacting badly with the new libjpeg8 library. Anyway, I managed to "solve" the problem by updating digikam, kipi-plugins, libkipi, libkdcraw and libexiv2 from the KDE UpdatedApps-repository: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/UpdatedApps/openSUSE_11.3/ Maybe this will solve your problem as well since Gwenview also uses the kipi- plugins and some of these libraries.
