           Summary: digikam: handbook says that libgphoto2 is required but
                    does not say whether it should be compiled with exif
                    support
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: esigra gmail com


Version:           0.9.2-final (using KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
OS:                Linux

The digikam handbook says at [help:/digikam/requirements.html] that libgphoto2 is required but does not say whether it should be compiled with exif support. The expected behaviour is to say which compile options are needed. The options are "doc exif hal nls".

Does digikam need libgphoto2 with exif support or does digikam somehow support exif on its own (maybe through libkexif)?
