[digiKam-users] Digikam dependencies

[digikam-2]

DK 6.4.0

In Archlinux, they list:

akonadi-contacts
kcalendarcore
kcontacts
libakonadi

as dependencies/requirements. Are they really needed?

Thanks

These dependencies are optional and could be deactivated at compile time. Then
digiKam would not have a plugin for creating calendars and create tags from
the KF5 address book (from KMail e.g.) would not be possible.

I'm not interested in kmail or creating calendars.

Is there4 some instructions on how to self compile DK?

Thanks

Where is the problem? DigiKam is neither slower nor unstable with these
optional components.

If you are Arch user, like me, it's very simple: you can compile
digikam-git Arch Aur package.
To avoid unneeded dependencies, I modified my PKBUILD like this.

depends=(liblqr qtav lensfun knotifyconfig kfilemetadata opencv
threadweaver qt5-xmlpatterns libgphoto2 imagemagick)
makedepends=('git' 'extra-cmake-modules-git' 'eigen' 'doxygen' 'boost'
'mariadb' 'kdoctools')
optdepends=('hugin: panorama tool' 'kimageformats')
