http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=173901 Summary: digikam contains a convience copy of cimg code
Product: digikam
Version: 0.9.4
Platform: unspecified
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general

Version: 0.9.4 (using 3.5.10, Debian Package 4:3.5.10.dfsg.1-1
(lenny/sid))
Compiler: Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.26-1-686
As has been done with the sqlite3 library it would be good for digikam during
build to check and see if there is a system installed cimg library of the
correct version and build/ link against that, rather than the internal copy of
that lib.
By doing this system resources are saved by linking to shared libs and security
issues/ bugs in libs only need to be fixed in one location rather than all the
applications which may or may not embed copies.
Of course this does make version control an issue, however as demonstrated by
sqlite3 it is workable.

Package: digikam
Version: 2:0.9.4~beta5-1
Severity: wishlist
Debian policy 3.8.0.0 states:
* Debian packages should not use convience copies of code from other
packages unless the included package is explicitly intended to be
used that way. [4.13]
digikam does this with cimg (version 1.2.8).
