You are welcome, but what was the easy way? :) Happy digikaming! /Philip On Oct 26, 2011 4:07 PM, "sleepless" <[hidden email]> wrote:

Aha, you mean like that. There is nothing wrong building it all by yourself, in fact it can be both fun and educational, but there's no real gain and you don't need to put down the time or the hassle to install plenty of development versions of packages and building tools. Also it's much easier to maintain installed packages (mine, others or your own) and how they effect your system than manually building and install a local or global setup. With my packages you also can use the power of libgphoto2 to transfer images from a bunch of cameras that are disabled in the official Ubuntu 11.10 packages of Digikam 2.1.1. With my packages you also get support of the latest exiv2 0.22 for handling image meta-data. My build also use the latest version of OpenCV 2.3.1 instead of the official 2.1 for backend handling of the face detection stuff. Don't think there is any difference for the user which version of OpenCV you use even though the newer version have new features for developers to implement if they want. Have fun with the new goodies. Keep the feedback coming so both Digikam and my packages can be as good as it gets. /Philip On Oct 26, 2011 4:34 PM, "sleepless" <[hidden email]> wrote:

As I mainly build packages I use myself I will be quicker about
updating for 11.10 that I use myself for now. Maybe I'm lucky to use KDE with (K)Ubuntu as there seem an unhappy camp about what's going on with Unity and Gnome in Ubuntu. When it comes to Natty I will more or less update on request. So if you feel that I'm lagging behind on or miss something for Natty then just send me a request and I'll try to fix that if and when I have time. /Philip On Wed, Oct 26, 2011 at 6:18 PM, sleepless <[hidden email]> wrote: > I Hope you will keep it up to date for Natty as long as possible.

The sad thing about Ubuntu is that KDE and KDE applications in general
get too little love from main and official Ubuntu/Canonical and heavily relies on the community driven Kubuntu team which could use more man power. Suse have a much more friendly approach to KDE and KDE applications than many other distros and Ubuntu in particular, even though I never have really liked Suse but used it for a while back in the days when it as version 9.x before I started using Kubuntu. I know that I should help the Kubuntu team out and have got the request to do so but doing so mean that I feel tied back by what's going on with other maintainers of other packages and Ubuntu polices and packing work flow. With my PPA I can do what ever I want and don't need to argue for my decision why I do what I do with changes and with which packages. I guess I'm just lazy... :) /Philip On Wed, Oct 26, 2011 at 6:28 PM, Larry <[hidden email]> wrote: > I use openSuse with kde and they are pretty quick at building digiKam > binaries > > On Oct 26, 2011 5:19 PM, "sleepless" <[hidden email]> wrote: > _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

This question have come up many times before and it's not likely. The
KDE framework have a lot of powerful features and to rewrite and reinvent them independently into Digikam would be reinventing the wheel and need a lot of man power just to do so, expertise in other areas than the Digikam team are interested in and knowledged of. I'm not a developer but I can understand why the choice to do it this way is a good thing. Especially as I'm a KDE user... /Philip On Wed, Oct 26, 2011 at 8:02 PM, David Vincent-Jones <[hidden email]> wrote: > Maybe it really is time to branch DK away from being so KDE dependant! > > David > _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

Would you be able to do an update to Natty as KDE 4.7.2 packages have been released in the backports PPA now?

Yes as you point it out but not until tomorrow evening I'm afraid.

Rebuilds of libkipi and libkexiv2 for KDE 4.7.2 on Natty have just
been uploaded on my "kubuntu-backports" PPA and is waiting to be built. That will solve the issues with Digikam 2.2.0 on my PPA for Natty. /Philip On Fri, Oct 28, 2011 at 10:18 AM, sleepless <[hidden email]> wrote: > +1 for the request.

Thanks as always, for your quick action. I am back in bussiness again.
Even though I prefer and will use your PPA for the scary possibillity that such things happens when you are not around I will try to keep up with the building process.

Or just keep an eye on what you update. If you update KDE 4.7.x then you will need rebuilds of some packages from my PPA if my Digikam packages shall work. If you don't see libkipi8 and libkexiv2 from me with that update then wait for them. Better up get my attention if I'm lagging behind with Natty. /Philip On Oct 29, 2011 1:58 PM, "sleepless" <[hidden email]> wrote:
