[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#770747: [digikam] Canon EOS70D - No thumbnail during import

[Anthony Callegaro]

Package: digikam
Version: 4:4.4.0-1.1
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

Dear maintainer(s),

Since buying a an EOS 70D I noticed that the thumbnail preview in the
import window wasn't working.

Gphoto2 does retrieve them with no issue when using :
gphoto2 -T

While investigating I noticed the following log message :
digikam(21466)/digikam (core) Digikam::ImportStackedView::syncSelection:
one or both of the models are null?! from:
Digikam::ImportIconView(0x5ad29a0) to:
Digikam::ImportThumbnailBar(0x42782d0)

Which lead me to these bug reportS :
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=340649
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=338407

The last one contains patches to solve the issue which are included in 4.5.0

I know Jessie is frozen, so I am wondering if it would be possible to
just include the patches in the current package ?

I wanted to try the patch myself, but I am not familiar with your
packaging method. If you provide me with a simple procedure I can
perform the test myself.

Let me know
Cheers
