Alex,

I have already checked how to do it. In fact there are 3 plugins to do :

- A tool for digiKam image editor (DigikamImagePlugins) to perform Lens 
Distorsion Correction and Anti-vignetting Correction using libpano Lens 
database. These tools already exist but do not use libpano.
- A tool for digiKam main interface (Kipi-Plugins) to batch process Lens 
Distorsion and Anti-vignetting. More limited than previous one (no preview of 
effect on image)
- A tool for digiKam main interface (Kipi-Plugins) to perform Panorama 
construction using libpano. More complicated to do.

Important : forget clens command line tool. It's just a libpano wrapper witch 
is very limited : I can only fix JPEG files. PNG and TIFF are forgotten...

The ultimate solution is to use libpano shared library every-where.

About database stuff, this will be done later when we update the DB structure.

Regards

Gilles
