well, you have chance (:=)))


That's interesting to know, now I can update parts of Digikam.


Maybe an interesting option to add is to let the user configure his

no, and never. why ? because dcraw command line options _change_ everytime.
There is a none compatibility between major release. Dave Coffin do the hell
like this : image with scripts compatibility !

In the pass, digiKam used the current dcraw version installed on the host
computer. Result : sometime it work, sometime no. Infernal, and a lots of
bugs reports to handle...

This is why we have created the libkdcraw C++ interface which include a
dcraw version fully tested with the interface.

Between 8.60 and 8.75 release, you will see new option appear and others
disappear.

With KDE4 port, we have to upgrate kdcraw to the last dcraw version.
