Dotan,<br><br>On #digikam IRC channel, there is 2 Debian guru on line reguliary : Achim Bohnet (allee) and Luka Renko (lure). they can guide you easily.<br><br>Note : i don't use Debian like dist : i'm Mandriva user since a very long time...<br>
<br>You can access to digiKam channel on <a href="http://freenode.net">freenode.net</a> network using your preferred irc application (best for me is Konversation), or by a simple web interface (look here on the bottom of page : <a href="http://www.digikam.org/?q=contact">http://www.digikam.org/?q=contact</a>)<br>

<br> I don't remember ever installing it. In fact, I didn't even see the<br> dependancies page. I do try to google and RTFM before asking redundant<br> questions, but that page eluded me. I suppose that I am trying to get<br>
