Then I rebuilt libkexiv2 setting CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH. This seemed to work: libkexiv2 seems to be linked against libexiv2 0.25. I also set the prefix to the staging dir and now both are in there. Problem arise when trying to build digikam itself: by setting CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH seems to link against my build of libkexiv2 but not my build of libexiv2. ldd confirms that digikam executable links to my own libkexiv2 but the system libexiv2.
