[Digikam-users] Re: Installing Digikam on Mac OS X 10.6.8

[Tim Jenness]

Assuming you've followed the dbus instructions I found the only way I could
get digikam to run up properly was to run kdeinit4.app first ("open -a
kdeinit4" from Terminal or find it in your Applications folder). Then
everything worked for me.
