As of today, stable digiKam is version 1.1 and that is working well
with KDE 4.3. I'm currently using Debian "unstable" which includes
both (KDE 4.3.4 and digiKam 1.1), and is not that unstable after all
(but still occasionally introduces new problems, of course).

Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron"... getting digiKam 1.x to work there might be
difficult indeed. This release did not even include KDE 4 yet!  Why is
updating not possible? Ubuntu 10.04, the next LTS version, is already
knocking at the door (but I'd wait two or three weeks for "beta 1"
before switching to that):
