if you don´t want to use the tarball but git sources then I have to make some adjustments, just let me know.

Here is your tarball (compressed archive of source code)
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/digikam/files/digikam/2.0.0/digikam-2.0.0.tar.bz2/download">http://sourceforge.net/projects/digikam/files/digikam/2.0.0/digikam-2.0.0.tar.bz2/download</a>


If it´s downloaded, extract it your user dir (somthing like
    home/my_user_dir)

Open a terminal window and go to the place where the software has
    been extracted.
If you type pwd at the prompt, you will see where you are, probably
    in home/my_user_dir
type cd digikam-2.0.0-rc

now make a directory to put your build files in
type mkdir build
cd build

if you do pwd (present working directory)
you see somthing like
/home/my_user_dir/digikam-2.0.0-rc/build


If cmake is not installed, now type:
sudo apt-get install cmake 
Now let cmake do it´s work
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` .. 


Most likely it will complain about missing stuff. Try to install it from synaptic or in any other way and retry cmake untill succesfull.
If all went successful

now run:
make
if done run:
sudo make install

      type="cite">Gilles, thank you very much for your input and advice.<br>
      <br>
      I have (more or less) read the whole bug report and I understand
      the problem is VERY complicate and that it might not be entirely a
      matter of packaging.<br>
      <br>
      Anyway, as I saw there was a new package in the Fedora repository,
      I tried to reinstall Digikam 2.0 from scratch (I had removed the
      1.9 version beforehand). This time I run Digikam from the console
      from the very first launch, and  understood 2 things:<br>
       - "thlibdc1394 error: Failed to initialize libdc1394" message is
      the first one that appears at the first launch<br>
       - when I closed the Digikam window, I got this message in the
      console : "QSqlDatabasePrivate::removeDatabase: connection
      'digikamDatabase-30048960' is still in use, all queries will cease
      to work." and I had to do a Ctrl-C after to get the control back
      (and that might be the incident that corrupts my DB at every first
      launch)<br>
      I'm not sure the whole trace will be useful for you as you seem to
      have plenty on this subject, but I keep it in case you want it.<br>
      <br>
      As for now, I will 'try' to follow your advice and compile by
      myself; but:<br>
      1) I'm not even sure I'll reach the end of this procedure; if
      there is somewhere some documentation understable by a newbie, I
      would very much like to be pointed at it<br>
      2) I understand that even that could not solve the problem, as
      others - much more experimented than I am - have already reported
      in the bug report.<br>
      <br>
      If that fails, I'll have to go back to 1.9 and await for good news
      about this problem.<br>
      <br>
      Thanks for helping,<br>
