Right, so in the digikam case, digikam links to libmarblewidget4 and
loads plugins which link to libmarblewidget10. In this case it is
reasonable to crash and I agree that the correct solution is a binNMU.
But what happens in the case of marble itself? It links against
libmarblewidget10 and the plugins as well, but when libmarblewidget4
is installed, it crashes and there is nothing mentioning
libmarblewidget4 in the backtrace. That doesn't make much sense to me.
Ideas?
