[Digikam-users] first attempt with svn failed - can u help?

[Daniel Bauer]

Hello :-)

So, finally I tried to install the svn version, but with not much success :-(
It seemed to go forward quite fine, but at the end it didn't work. I 
redirected all messages to a file, and as far as I can see, there are (at 
least) two messages that I don't understand:
first was:

configure: WARNING:
libMagick is required for the jpeglossess plugin.

and then:
You're missing libMagick. The jpeglossless plugin will not be compiled.

but libMagick is installed on my system and "locate libMagick" gives:
/usr/lib/libMagick++.so.6
/usr/lib/libMagick++.so.6.2.3
/usr/lib/libMagick.so.6
/usr/lib/libMagick.so.6.2.3

???

Then the messages end with:
-- digiKam configure results -------------------
-- sqlite3 found.................. YES
-- gphoto2 found.................. YES
-- libkipi found.................. YES
-- libtiff found.................. YES
-- libpng found................... YES
-- lcms found..................... YES
-- Exiv2 library found............ NO

digiKam needs Exiv2 library. You need to install Exiv2 first
Exiv2 website is at http://www.exiv2.org
------------------------------------------------

-- digiKamImagePlugins configure results --------
-- digiKam found.................. YES
-------------------------------------------------

I've installed exiv2 to /opt/digikam_exiv2 - but for sure did something wrong. 
I guess, I must somehow tell in the "compile_it"-script where exiv2 and 
libMagick are, but I have no idea, how to do that. 

Can you help me a step forward?
and: I guess I have to recompile, do I have to do "make uninstall" and/or 
"make distclean" first, something else?

I know, people that are so absolutely unaware shouldn't try to install 
svn-versions, but I'm so very curious..., so any help would be highly 
appreciated.

regards

Daniel
---------------
here's some more information about what I did:

- made a new user "test" on my system
- logged in as "test"
- downloaded and untared exiv2-0.9.1, then in that directory as "test":
  ./configure --prefix=/opt/digikam_exiv2
  make
  su -l root (and cd to the said dirctory)
  make install
- then (again as "test", in the same directory) run the script 
"compile_it" (from Markus Spring's mail to this list of April 6, without 
changes):
  source compile_it

If you want to see the output of "compile_it" (197 KB) I'll tar it and send it 
as attachement.
