AFAIK yes. When I built beta from the source and install it with default prefix 
in /usr/local I encountered this bug with images not being displayed in the 
albums.

I have no idea why this is happening, but my best guess would be that some 
library is not getting loaded when digikam is installed in /usr/local but I am 
not sure if this is digikam's problem. Could also be a KDE issue with some 
path hard coded somewhere by accident.
