Here is my latest desription of the proces. You will have to translate the ubuntu language to fedora´s.
if you don´t want to use the tarball but git sources then I have to make some adjustments, just let me know.

Here is your tarball (compressed archive of source code)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/digikam/files/digikam/2.0.0/digikam-2.0.0.tar.bz2/download
If it´s downloaded, extract it your user dir (somthing like
home/my_user_dir)
Open a terminal window and go to the place where the software has
been extracted.
If you type pwd at the prompt, you will see where you are, probably
in home/my_user_dir
type cd digikam-2.0.0-rc
now make a directory to put your build files in
type mkdir build
cd build
if you do pwd (present working directory)
you see somthing like
/home/my_user_dir/digikam-2.0.0-rc/build
If cmake is not installed, now type:
sudo apt-get install cmake
Now let cmake do it´s work
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` ..
Most likely it will complain about missing stuff. Try to install it from synaptic or in any other way and retry cmake untill succesfull.
If all went successful
now run:
make
if done run:
sudo make install

DONE!
