There's a bug open to resolve this:

    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1578517

The gthumb package just needs to be rebuilt against the
updated exiv libraries.  A scratch build succeeds, so this
should be a relatively easy fix and will hopefully get
cleared up soon.

Here's a scratch build with the rpm release bumped in a way
that it is newer than what's currently in EPEL-7 and older
than the next build, in case you want to use it while
waiting for an official rebuild.

(It should be finished in a few minutes.)
