What a load of BS, if you want more people testing the software you need 
to provide some convenience for people with less than 100% dedication to 
the digikam project to allow for easy  (./configure; make; make install) 
type testing.

The very least "central" thing you could do is to add this information 
to the wiki, I could do that myself, if I had the time and knew with 
more certainty that this is the right thing to do. However the amount of 
stuff needed to compile from trunk is already way too much for the 
average compile-from-source-tester!
