[Digikam-devel] [Bug 146312] Configure rules for digikam 0.92 Beta 2 using --prefix=/home/xav/build

[Arnd Baecker]

Just one additional comment:
In principle, you might even have to specify the libs:
  ./configure --prefix=$DKPATH --with-extra-includes=$DKPATH/include  \
         --with-extra-libs=$DKPATH/lib
(I think I had cases where this was necessary ...)

Also it is worth mentioning, that there is a
problem for the kde-imaging part to find a self-compiled exiv2
(if exiv2 is already in /usr/)
due to an ordering problem in the configure script, see
http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-imaging/2007-May/005106.html

In general, for installing from svn, the procedure at
  http://www.digikam.org/?q=download/svn
under "Install digiKam in your Home Directory"
usually works without problems.
