Me again. In the last hours I read the Gentoo docs concerning environment 
variables and learned quite a lot. I am almost sure that it is a problem with 
the LDPATH variable, that usaly points to all the places were libs can be 
found. 

Reading your output I found out that all the files I need are there, but 
digikam seems not to find them:

Gilles what does "echo $LDPATH" or "echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH" give you? The 
latter it not used in Gentoo it seems. Any pointers how I can make digikam 
find the libs? Once I sort out this problem I can write a nice little blog 
about this "home dir approach" of installing SVN snapshots ;-)
