Package: digikam
Version: 4:8.8.0-2
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: antdev66 at gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,
both digikam and showfoto fail to start with the following error:

# showfoto: error while loading shared libraries: libOpenEXR-3_1.so.30: 
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Running "ldd /usr/bin/digikam" shows:

# libOpenEXR-3_1.so.30 => not found

Same applies to showfoto.

The installed version of libopenexr-3-1-30 provides library files with 
version 3_4 (e.g., libOpenEXR-3_4.so.33), but the digikam and showfoto 
binaries were linked against the older ABI version 3_1 
(libOpenEXR-3_1.so.30). These packages appear to need rebuilding against 
the current OpenEXR library version.

Thanks,
Antonio
