Installing dependency in order to compile digiKam

[Dharmendra vasadia]

Hello All,

I am installing dependencies in order to compile digiKam from https://www.digikam.org/api/

I want to install ecm and i went through link given on web page but dont see any process how to compile and install it. Tried google followed few steps but dont know how to confirm installation.

basically, do i need to get source of ecm, compile and install it?  or just get rpm package and installed it. i tried later but it required other dependency package kf5-rpm-macros 

rpm -Uvh extra-cmake-modules-5.52.0-1.el7.noarch.rpm
warning: extra-cmake-modules-5.52.0-1.el7.noarch.rpm: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID 352c64e5: NOKEY
error: Failed dependencies:
kf5-rpm-macros is needed by extra-cmake-modules-5.52.0-1.el7.noarch
[root@localhost opt]# yum install kf5-rpm-macros
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks

Thanks

Both are valid. In case of RPM, install just devel package.

Welcome to RH/CentOS/Fedora, where KF5 support is just, a shame. Here under mageia, i just install right devel package et voilà all is done in few seconds...

Fedora is (should be!) fine, it's rhel7/centos7 that's at least a minor pain 
due to it including only Qt 5.9.x (which is no longer supported by recent 
versions of KF5).

If you have other constructive criticism, I'm open to hearing it.

That said, epel7 repo has kf5-rpm-macros, I'm guessing reporter here doesn't 
have that repo enabled.
