I'm not sure if this is a bug or if I screwed up something....

I get this  if I try to start digikam from the command line in a fresh
install of Kubuntu Wily:

digikam: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libkexiv2.so.11: undefined
symbol:
_ZN5Exiv213XmpProperties10registerNsERKNSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEEES8_


I had originally tried to install updated version of digikam from philip5's ppa.  When that didn't work, I purged the packages, removed the ppa entry from my apt sources and then installed the Ubuntu universe package.
