digiKam-0.9.0-beta3 and DigikamImagePlugins-0.9.0-beta3 have been released.

[F.J.Cruz]

Following the policy of digiKam community about to offer a high quality
product, we are proud to presents the new digiKam and DigikamImagePlugins
0.9.0-beta3 releases. As usual, these news packages  have a lot of bugs fixed
and improved features:

If you want to know more about all the changes in this release, have a look at
the NEWS
[http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/extragear/graphics/digikam/NEWS?rev=596600&view=markup]
and CHANGELOG files
[http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/extragear/graphics/digikam/ChangeLog?rev=595838&view=markup].
Feel free to  read about ours plans for the future in the TODO file
[http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/extragear/graphics/digikam/TODO?rev=594143&view=markup]

As you probably know whith the beta releases we are asking users to test this
version of digiKam and to report bugs, so if you find one of these, please
report it to the bug tracking system at bugs.kde.org. In a first step, make
sure that there is not already a bug report for your problem. A list of open
bug reports for digikam can be found at
http://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?product=digikam&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED 
and for digikamimageplugins in this URL
http://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?product=digikamimageplugins&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED.

If you are a digiKam user, you know you have a great piece of software in your
desktop, otherwise we invite to test a sophisticated, but easy to use,
digital photo management application.

Hi,

The build failed on my system, becayse it was unable to find exiv2_version.h.

I looked through the rest of the code and saw that only
digikam/lib/widgets/metadata/gpswidget.cpp included it, so I thought that
maybe it could have been left behind, and not really be necessary anymore.

So, by removing the offending include (#include <exiv2/exiv2_version.h>) -
line 54 from digikam/lib/widgets/metadata/gpswidget.cpp, I fixed the problem.

Regards,
Pedro Venda.

I run configure and am given the following:-

-- digiKam configure results -------------------
-- sqlite3 found.................. YES
-- gphoto2 found.................. NO

digiKam needs gPhoto2. You need to install gPhoto2, e.g. from
http://www.gphoto.org/download.html

-- libkipi found.................. YES
-- libtiff found.................. YES
-- libpng found................... YES
-- lcms found..................... YES
-- Exiv2 library found............ YES
------------------------------------------------
This is correct. I have been unable to install gphoto2. But it has been mentioned in this list that I only need libgphoto2, which I have installed, and not gphoto2. Which is correct?
If I don't need gphoto2 then how do I install?

Hub, Gilles,
You seem to be saying no big deal about the "gphoto needed output" - just a textual correction.
So that must mean my problems are with my install of libgphoto2, right?

ok. exiv2-0.11 has the "missing" file, but I found the following comment in
it:
  // Don't include the exiv2_version.h file, it is included by types.hpp

Since gpswidgets.cpp already includes exif.hpp and exif.hpp itself includes
types.hpp, the #include <exiv2/exiv2_version.h> is still redundant and
according to the exiv2 guys, shouldn't be there.

Another issue to be noted is the tags.hpp include. Like types.hpp, tags.hpp is
automatically included by exif.hpp, so it doesn't need to be there.

The build went well this time again, thanks :)

Cheers,

Hi Gilles,
I'm sure this is a simple thing now that I don't know.
Marcus from the gphoto2 list told me the flag to enable gphoto2 to compile and I have now done that, so this must mean that libgphoto2 is OK behind it, right?
I am not on the machine until the end of the day. But ...
1. What I need now is the magic that will enable my system to pick this up.
2. Is it a bug that the configure process reports gphoto2 missing, not the libgphoto2 behind it (I think we have been through this one, but a bit unclear still)?
3. Will this output disappear when it correctly finds libgphoto2?
Hope you can help,
Adam

[adam.saltiel]

Well, I am a happy man.
You know the phrase, he has a history, well I'm not talking about my own, but my computer also has a history, I guess in computer years it is a bit of an old man now, certainly it goes back to 2005, and older versions of linux, I started with Red Hat something.
After hitting my head against a wall for a couple of evenings I investigated my file structure and what I have on it a bit more closely.
I discovered an old install of libgphoto2 in another location and, more importantly, the gphoto2 executable under /usr/bin and the new install, something like /usr/lib/bin.
Then I slapped my forhead, it's an executable, it doesn't matter much where it is so long as it is found. Since I don't know how to tell compile where the version I want to use is, just move (actually copy) the new version to the old location. And it works! With one mother of a compile - well not as long as the sadly never used PDL which took all night to compile in, but that's another story!
Lessons:-
1. We have histories.
2. Maybe it is worth reading the book (but maybe it isn't, I wouldn't have known what bit of knowledge I was looking for.)
3. Don't get frustrated with the mail list. If there is silence don't be paranoid. It probably means that if you don't know your own system, then someone else sure as hell doesn't, why should they?
4. Linux is brilliant. You could say that you would never waist your time so productively with windos. Not true. What happens with windos is that you do waist your time, and worse, you get sucked into dead ends while you wait and wait for features in your prefered what ever. Linux breeds creativity and it is brilliant. It is brilliant to be involved in that process, however slightly. If you see a work of art don't you want to feel involved in it, touched by it, this is the same. (where, I suppose, your own computer is your interpretation of the work of art.)
5. I have anwered my own questions, gphoto2 is needed and the error will go when it is found, I'm not sure the nature of the dependancy though?
6. And, of course, *digkam rocks!*

With thanks,
Adam

Hi Gilles,
I'm sure this is a simple thing now that I don't know.
Marcus from the gphoto2 list told me the flag to enable gphoto2 to compile and I have now done that, so this must mean that libgphoto2 is OK behind it, right?
I am not on the machine until the end of the day. But ...
1. What I need now is the magic that will enable my system to pick this up.
2. Is it a bug that the configure process reports gphoto2 missing, not the libgphoto2 behind it (I think we have been through this one, but a bit unclear still)?
3. Will this output disappear when it correctly finds libgphoto2?
Hope you can help,
Adam

Yes, digiKam use only libgphoto2, not gphoto2 backend.
