Building DigiKam locally from source

[Gilles Caulier]

Hi, and sorry for the delay...

If you have some problem with external dependencies, we need to know which
ones exactly ?

First look well the list of dependencies :

https://www.digikam.org/api/index.html#externaldeps

Qt5 and KF5 must be found in all main Linux distributions. No need to
recompile all yourself it's a waste of time.

All others one can be also found without to build something in your
computer. Just install the devel packages and all must be fine. This is how
i do here with Mageia 6.1

Best
