You are right, but...<br>
<br>
1/ It permit to run digiKam on Linux distro where it's not packaged.<br>
2/ It permit to use the last stable version quickly.<br>
3/ It permit to use version on development and to test last changes from<br>
developers, few hours are a patch applied to source code<br>
4/ It permit to non developer users to use last code without to compile<br>
anything<br>
5/ It permit to have a bundle of all dependencies required by digiKam<br>
packaged well as it must do for the application in goal to have something<br>
stable as it must.<br>
6/ Windows and OSX use this bundle way to deploy applications, and it's<br>
work. Why not under Linux too...<br>
7/ ... And more...<br>

All true.<br>
I have no problem with all of digikam installed as user in an linux environment as long as it doesn't require any libs installed as root.<br>
In other words, no update or dependency hell like in Windows.<br>
<br>
How does user-digikam access system provided monitor calibration?<br>
