Hello from a newbie.<br><br>
I am trying to compile a version of Digikam that I cannot yet get through
the windows installer (see
<a href="https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=230401" eudora="autourl">
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=230401</a>). I am using MSVC. This
is all very new to me so I am trying to follow on-line instructions as
best as I can. I have run into a problem that I am not yet able to solve:
when compiling Digikam with emerge, it cannot find the source code for
libssh. This is what I have after all the dependencies are reported by
emerge:<br><br>

</font>Note that I am at the moment trying to keep things simple: I just
build the "normal" version of Digikam, just to make sure
everything works. I also work offline in order to keep an eye on what
gets downloaded. I asked emerge to build libssh and win32libs, without
the --offline option, but it fell over. I could not find
libssh-c90-src-20090805 in the winkde repository. <br><br>
Where do I go from here to compile successfully?<br><br>
Thanks in advance,<br><br>

PS: This is my first post, I hope I have not transgressed any law by
asking a question first and thinking later ;) </body>
