This is a binary compatibility issue with distro packages. Recompilation off
digiKAm and libkexiv2 need to be done.

Same for me but with a different digikam.

I added the extras and kubuntu-backports repos from
https://launchpad.net/~philip5; updated libsqlite3 to the version here
http://packages.ubuntu.com/utopic/libsqlite3-0 and ran all related possible
updates via apt-get (actually aptitude, but close enough).

I still get the first two "Object::connect [...]" lines but digikam appears to
be working as expected.

Take care to perform your own due diligence before adding unknown repos to your
apt!

(In reply to Brylie Christopher Oxley from comment #0)

When launching digiKam 4.4, installed via the ppa:msylwester/digikam source,
_ZNK11KExiv2Iface14AltLangStrEdit8textEditEv
Reproducible: Always
1. install digiKam 4.4 from ppa:msylwester/digikam
2. type digikam at the command prompt
Object::connect: No such signal
org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceAdded(QDBusObjectPath)
Object::connect: No such signal
org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceRemoved(QDBusObjectPath)
_ZNK11KExiv2Iface14AltLangStrEdit8textEditEv
digiKam 4.4 would load

msylwester PPA use copies of my packages and haven't updated libkexiv2 to
4:4.14.2-trusty~ppa1 that you find on my PPA which overrides the kubuntu teams
version of libkexiv2 and uses exiv2 0.24 and not exiv2 0.23. Therefor you get
the "digikam: symbol lookup error: digikam: undefined symbol:
_ZNK11KExiv2Iface14AltLangStrEdit8textEditEv" crash.
