[Digikam-users] kipi-plugins 0.2.0-beta3 release for KDE4...

[Anders Troberg]

Is there any hope of support for log files in NMEA format in the GPSSync plugin? The format is very easy to read (a flat, comma separated file), and is, in my experience, the most common format from GPS loggers. I'll be happy to provide sample files if someone is interested.

Dear all digiKam fans and users!

To compile this KDE4 version, you need libkexiv2, libkdcraw, and libkipi for KDE4. These libraries are now included in KDE core with kdegraphic component.
