I'm just trying to install this but there is a bit I don't understand.  On the page http://www.digikam.org/download/tarball it says -

You need to specify an installation prefix. This will be the base path of the installation. To determine the correct path to your KDE installation, use `kde4-config --prefix` and provide it as a parameter for cmake, as shown in the example commands below:


bootstrap.linux
cd build
make
su
make install

I have got the prefix, it is '/usr' but where do I put it?  I don't see cmake in the example commands.

Thanks
Mick

Which Linux distro are you using? It would probably be easier to
download the package for your distro which you can build yourself, but
to help with that we need this information from you.

For example, on Fedora all I need to do is to download the source
tarball and place it in the correct directory then modify my digikam
rpm .spec file with the changed version number and run an rpmbuild -bb
command to build binary packages which I can then install.

I don't know what the details are for adding an appropriate repository
to Mint, but there may be a 3rd party one that keeps up to date with
digiKam releases. Has Mint released digiKam 4.0.0 yet?

I started huilding it for Fedora, but it looks like I need to update
opencv before I can get it to compile. That isn't a simple process...

yes, if you look to README, i updated dependency to OpenCV to last
stable 2.4.9. When i hack libkface about face management, i see
previous OpenCV crash violently OpenCV 2.4.6 here officially with
Mageia4)

So i updated myself opencv until 2.4.9 to see improvements, and last
stable out in april is better.

note : digiKam will compile with previous version of OpenCV, but i
recommend to update this library...

Brian, Gilles,

Firstly let me say that I really do appreciate the effort that you guys put in to creating and maintaining this very impressive package.  However I cannot figure out what is going wrong with my install.  Mint repositories currently have DK3.5.

A few weeks ago I installed DK4.1 Build date: May 27 2014 (target: debugfull) by running
    git clone git://anongit.kde.org/digikam-software-compilation
After a few problems with dependencies I got it to work.  I assumed that I would be able to do the same with the official release but it does not work.  Running ./bootstrap.local gives errors -

CMake Error at extra/CMakeLists.txt:38 (ADD_SUBDIRECTORY):
  add_subdirectory given source "libkgeomap" which is not an existing
  directory.
CMake Error at extra/CMakeLists.txt:39 (ADD_SUBDIRECTORY):
  add_subdirectory given source "libkface" which is not an existing
  directory.
CMake Error at extra/CMakeLists.txt:40 (ADD_SUBDIRECTORY):
  add_subdirectory given source "kipi-plugins" which is not an existing
  directory.
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:155 (ADD_SUBDIRECTORY):
  add_subdirectory given source "core" which is not an existing directory.

I have looked at CMakeOutput.log and CMakeError.log but they don't give me any clue as to the problem.

I installed OpenCV 2.4.9 using the instructions here
http://docs.opencv.org/doc/tutorials/introduction/linux_install/linux_install.html
but I am not convinced that it is actually working, how can I check it?

By the way, I cannot see any reference to OpenCV in the readme in the download or the one on the website.  Am I looking in the wrong place?

Thanks
Mick

OpenCV 2.4.9 is a dependancy from libkface :
