Fabien, I've tried this, but no luck - configure still complains that there is 
no exiv2 although the path $DIGIKAMDEST/lib/pkgconfig exists and there are 
two files in there (exiv2.pc and libkipi.pc) ...

I've deleted everything, 
entered export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$DIGIKAMDEST/lib/pkgconfig at the beginning of 
both compile... files
run compile_exiv2.sh, then compile_digikam.sh.
no luck,

again deleted everything, deleted the new export command from the 
compile_exiv2.sh (but left it in compile_digikam.sh), still no luck.
