How to get kio to find digikamalbums et al?

[Nikolaus]

Hello,

I have compiled digikam and installed it into /usr/local. Unfortunately,
things are not quite working right: digikam has trouble communicating
with kioslave, so the browser doesn't show any images at all.

I'm getting the following messages:

$ digikam
Object::connect: No such signal org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceAdded(QString)
Object::connect: No such signal org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceRemoved(QString)
digikam(14202): couldn't create slave: "Unknown protocol 'digikamdates'."
digikam(14202)/digikam (core) Digikam::AlbumManager::slotDatesJobResult: Failed to list dates
digikam(14202)/digikam (core) Digikam::DNotificationWrapper: parent is null
digikam(14202): couldn't create slave: "Unknown protocol 'digikamalbums'."
digikam(14202)/digikam (core) Digikam::ImageAlbumModel::slotResult: Failed to list url:  "Could not start process Unknown protocol 'digikamalbums'.."
digikam(14202)/kdecore (trader) KServiceTypeTrader::defaultOffers: KServiceTypeTrader: serviceType  "Digikam/ImagePlugin"  not found

I've tried to fix this by explicitly setting

* LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /usr/local/lib/kde4 (which contains e.g. kio_digikamalbums.so)
* KDE_FORK_SLAVES=1 (so the slave processes inherit LD_LIBRARY_PATH)

and running kbuildsycoca4 (out of desperation, not sure if that's really
relevant), but the problem persists.

Is there a way to install digikam from source without having to put
files in /usr/lib/?

Best,
-Nikolaus

Follow instruction from README.LOCAL files. There is also a bootstrap.local script to configure source code.

Thanks! It seems I just missed to set KDEDIRS when running
kbuildsycoca4. Now it works nicely :-).
