Aha. So you mean if I rebuild my system's digikam v0.10.0 on a KDE4.3  
system (I'm running gentoo) then my subversion build will start  
working again? Fantastic. I will try that (I had not realised that  
digikam would pick up the old installed version for some things). I  
can confirm that the system digikam was not rebuilt during the KDE4.3  
upgrade (but I can't test until I get home).

Thanks!!

Most probably yes. kioslaves are always provided from system and digikam uses
own kioslaves to list album contents. Similar fix (rebuild 0.10.0) recently
fixed issues for Kubuntu 4.3/backport PPA users, the only side effect might be
that you are mixing 0.10.0 and svn (1.0-to-be) version, but I suspect database
did not change.

Hope it helps - I am also very glad that we hopefully now fully understand
this issue (kioslaves, marble and the rest ;-)).

Luka

What would really be nice if somebody would write a quick wrap up:

- where do kioslaves come from? KDE or digiKam?
- how is digiKam picking which kioslave to use? system or custom?
- aren't kioslaves removed if you uninstall digiKam?

(and one maybe the most important one)

- can digikam 0.10.0 and 1.0.0beta coexist?

They are provided/installed by Digikam. But kioslaves are a KDE feature and
are therefore searched for only on your KDE location (normally /usr).

> - how is digiKam picking which kioslave to use? system or custom?

Digikam has no way to pick which one is used: it gets the same kioslave you
would get if you would type "digikamalbums:/" in Konqueror (which is the one
installed at the same location as core KDE).

> - aren't kioslaves removed if you uninstall digiKam?

Correct. Digikam kioslaves are installed and removed with digikam packages.

I would suspect yes (as I do not recall any DB change between 0.10.x and
1.0.x), but I would rather see Marcel or Gilles confirm.

I can confirm that rebuilding our gentoo digikam v0.10.0 results in my  
private build now displaying images. What a relief!

Thanks again for the help.
