Ubuntu 15.10 wily

Noeck
Hi,

as others reported, Digikam 4.12 packaged in Ubuntu 15.10 has no
geolocation features. I have a few questions about that:

1. Will there be a philip5/extra ppa for 15.10 (wily) anytime soon?
   This is where I got Digikam from so far and I liked it.

2. Do you expect any problems when downgrading?
   I used 4.14 before (from the ppa) and now I get 4.12 from the wily
   repositories. Could this break anything about the metadata, database,
   and so on? Can I use 4.12 for the time being and switch back to 4.14
   whenever it is easily available in future?

3. Is there any chance that Ubuntu will still update their packages to
   get geolocation working again?
   (From your experience with Ubuntu – I know that you are not the
   packager.)

4. Is the only viable way to get 4.14 and/or geolocation currently to
   compile it on my own?


Thanks in advance for any clarification!
Joram
