Hi,
digikam crashes for me on startup with
digikam: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_imgcodecs.so.410: undefined symbol: _ZN7Imf_3_414ChromaticitiesC1ERKN9Imath_3_14Vec2IfEES5_S5_S5_
I have set severity only to important because I do not know, if everyone is affected.

Kind Regards
Ben

This appears to be caused by openexr.  I found the same issue after upgrading
to openexr 3.4.14-0.1.

Downgrading back to 3.4.6+ds-4 fixes the crash.

I checked again today and the crash is gone.  I can use openexr 3.4.14-0.1
with digikam in Sid now.  I assume due to other package rebuilds -- openexr is
not used directly in Digikam -- i.e. it is not a build-dependency.
