[Digikam-users] FINAL? UPDATE: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! B U I L D I N G D I G I K A M F O R D U M M I E S !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! on Ubuntu

[Martin (KDE)]

Hi

What I did on fedora 15:

- download 
ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/development/rawhide/source/SRPMS/digikam-2.0.0-4.fc17.src.rpm 
tp /tmp
- run rpm -ivh /tmp/digikam*.src.rpm
- run rpmbuild -bb ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/digikam.spec
- if it does not complain about missing packages stop building it
- if it complains run yum install with the missing packages
- (~/rpmbuild can be removed afterwards)
- create a directory where to put all stuff into (here /opt/src/)
- cd into this directory
- run (one line): 'git clone git://anongit.kde.org/digikam-software-
compilation digikam-sc'
- cd digikam-sc
- run 'perl ./gits populate'
- create subdirectory build
- cd to build sub directory
- run 'cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull -
DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` ..'
- run 'make -j4' (depending on you cpu core count)
- run 'make install' as root

I don't like compiling in home directory as I regularly take an update 
from my users homes so I use /opt/src for compilations.

Next step to try is to create a rpm with beta digikam.

Regards

Martin
