Thanks Simon for your comments, I will bring them in the howto.

As you have problems with digikam ioslaves: Do you own a 32bit or a 65bit
system? In the later case you have to modify the paths in the little script.
Do you install under /usr/local as the tutorial suggested or in /usr ?

Regards, Jens

Thanks for your answer! I'm on a 64bit system, indeed. Which paths do I
have to adjust?

And yes,  I've installed everything to /usr/local, not to /usr.

I have the same problem. I just compiled under Fedora 13 64bit following the "svnAlongStable" method, the kio_digikamalbums.so is located in /usr/local/lib64/kde4/ so I've changed the path in the script accordingly - export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$DIGIKAMDEST/lib64/kde4:$DIGIKAMDEST/lib64:$DIGIKAMDEST/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" - same with LDPATH. But I'm still getting the same error - digikam(16815): couldn't create slave: "Není možné vytvořit io-slave: klauncher hlásí: Chyba při nahrávání 'kio_digikamdates'.

Also compiling this on Fedora is harder than I'd thought. libkexiv2 had some building issues, which I managed to resolve. DigiKam also had some build && linker issues. I don't know why, but cmake picked the right libkexiv2 and libkdcraw libs in /usr/local, but during make, it was using the distribution ones. Same with include dirs. I don't know cmake too well, so after trying to set few parameters I ended up moving the system include files to some other place. Then I just run make again and it picked up the right includes. Same with libs. Maybe this is 64bit system related...I don't know. What may be the issue here?

Later I might also send the steps needed to build digiKam on Fedora, including needed packages, if it would be wanted for the howto.

Marty
