           Summary: Make face detection (kface) and geo tagging (kmap)
                    optional features
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Face Detection
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: christoph at maxiom.de


Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

digiKam/master now requires the kface and kmap libraries together with its
dependencies (notably the OpenCV library and Marble) to be installed. The
dependencies are rather heavy compared to other optional dependencies (the
OpenCV package has 29 MB here). Those dependencies have been optional in
kipi-plugins.

If possible, I would like to continue to be able to reduce the weight of the
digiKam suite by reducing its feature set, so it would be nice if the kface and
kmap dependencies were optional.

Reproducible: Didn't try
