[Digikam-users] updating dcraw for Pentax K10D PEF format

Hi,

I have a Pentax K10d and I shoot in Raw format primarily.  I've done 
some research and found that the version of dcraw that digikam uses is 
8.41 which does not yet support this format, but version 8.69, which is 
the newest, does.  I looked through the online svn and found 
instructions for updating the dcraw.c file and followed them using the 
source rpm for digikam 9.1 and modifying the dcraw.c file and putting it 
where it goes. 

digikam rebuilds fine and works and I can see the .PEF files and view 
them, but if I try to edit them in showfoto I get a dialog saying the 
version of digikamdcraw is too old.  I have looked through all the 
source to see what showfoto is looking for to determine version of 
digikamdcraw, but I can't find anything in the new file that would break 
the version check.

does anyone have any ideas of how to get this to work? 

thanks
Scott
