Because I use LTS (Mint KDE 13) with its standard repositories and not
an expert in Linux system administration.

I'm no expert either. But I wouldn't dream so stay with a distro that is so far behind!
I began with Ubuntu, that was always 2 releases behind; so I switched to Fedora several years ago, and can now benefit from stable versions at most 10 days after they're released, for whatever program I use regularly (Digikam, but also Darktable, Scribus and such).

Another alternaive is Magiea Linux which is always up to date, because digiKam tarball packager work in digiKa team...

This is the distro that i use everywhere. Simple and suitable.

Well, I quite see your point.

But just that very machine must do the restricted range of tasks (for
example, running LATEX) and I am not sure the OS on it will be upgraded
even when LTS is expired (we shall have entirely different machines then).

By the way, has the namely subject problem fixed in digiKam 3.5?

One can get DigiKam 3.3 from Kubuntu-backports:
<https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/backports>

To install, open a terminal and enter:
        sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports
then:
        sudo apt-get update
Should be a bunch of KDE-stuff for upgrading.

P.S: Recently, Clem sort of recommended on the Mint blog to
add backports of standard repositories for Mint 13LTS (one
tick-mark in repository setup), to benefit from a busload of
features not available othervise. Probably wise to do so if
you use Cinnamon or Mate.

Regards,
Sveinn í Felli

Hi
I use Digikam 2.6 with mysql (extern server), 30 000 pictures, Debian
Wheezy (stable). It works fine.  I prefer to stay with 2.6 because 3.5
is not stable enough for me (professional use).
Regards
