You cannot change the exiv library to 0.25 and hope that digiKam will
accept it ))

There are strict rules when program is linked and every single time
there is a library update, you must also recompile the program which
depends on it.

This happens a lot on my machine, when packages from repository are
updated, I need to recompile my digiKam, otherwise it does not start.

So you need exiv 0.25 corresponding libkexiv2-14 and digikam compiled
against these libraries.

Indeed Remco!!!!

I added with Yast this repo:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/NicoK:/branches:/KDE:/Extra/openSUSE_13.2/
Then searched for libkexiv2-11 and found an even newer version (v
15.04.3-2.1) than posted by KDE:Applications. This may have been posted
just hours or minutes ago.
So I updated the libkexiv2-11 to this version, having already installed
libexiv2-14 from graphics and YES!!!!  Digikam is alive again !!!!

your repo includes also a more recent version of libexiv2-14 but just
with the one I had was enough. So, for all opensuse users, the solution
to get Digikam 4.11 (from KDE:EXTRA) up and running is to include this
NicoK repo and update libkexiv2-11 as well to get libexiv2-14.
Kipi-plugins are also included in this repo as well as in others. Or
simply upgrade Digikam and all these packages from the Nicok repo
because even Digikam is posted in a more recent version (4.11.0-44.7).

Finally back to work.
Thanks a lot Remco.

Hej Martin,

Yes you can !

The philosophy is that Digikam has not only a menu in the top of the window but very important functions with buttons left and right of the main window: from Windows comming I expected also that all finctions should be found in the menus as well.

left: search and select images after album, time, tags, ...

right: Image informations to read and set those. Exif properties, the globe, and also as the fifth icon from top (sunflower with paperdoc) has the possibility for comments and tags to each image or to a selection of several images.

Some of those functions can only be found at the buttons left and right.

 

best regards

Christian
