[Digikam-devel] exif / exiv???

[Heiner Lamprecht]

Hi,

I have installed a new computer and now tried to compile digikam and
all the needed stuff.  Exiv2 is already installed.  But when
compiling the kipi-plugins, I get the message, that libexif.la is
missing.

I thought, that libexif is no longer needed, since we are using
exiv2?

Have I missed something?


Thanks,


    Heiner

no. libexif is require yet by JpegLossless kipi-plugins via libkexif. Port
this plugin to Exiv2 is planed in the future, without using libkexif.

Of course, digiKam do not use libkexif now since we use Exiv2 instead.

But, libgphoto2 require libexif. In fact, you need to install libexif in your
computer...

Okay, now I understand.

BTW:  Are there any problems known on 64bit?

Well, look in B.K.O. We have sorted all know bug by sub categories to be more
readable/suitable. I remember to see 1 or 2 bugs relevant... but not sure...

http://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?product=digikam&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED

We have never tested endeep digikam & co under 64 bits. Please give us a
feedback, especially to load image data in editor and running editor tools
with 16 bits/color/pixel images.
