Strangely: I run the same version without error.

Please run 
	 dpkg --list|grep -i openexr
to see what openexr packages you have installed.

On my system:

$ dpkg --list|grep -i openexr
ii  libimath-3-2-30:amd64                                    3.2.2-2+b1                                
amd64        Utility libraries from ASF used by OpenEXR - runtime
ii  libopenexr-3-4-33:amd64                                  3.4.15+ds-1

Yeah.  I'm going to have to find a way to depend on the openexr libs even 
though digikam doesn't actually build against it.
