[Digikam-users] Re: digikam, MacOS X, MacPorts and KDE and... carsh on stratup

Hi,

Do you remind this old thread on the list ?
My attempt to install digikam on my Mac was unsuccessfull and I decided 
to wait a few until the install process become maybe simpler...

Yesterday, I thinked it was time to re-attempt with digikam 1.8 on 
macports...

So, because I hope this thread become a roadmap to have digikam on Mac, 
here my command-lines :

> sudo port selfupdate
> sudo port upgrade digikam
Here a problem with kdeedu, I force activation as macports suggest
> sudo port -f activate kdeedu4 @4.6.0_0
> sudo port upgrade digikam
My username is "g"
> sudo chown -R g ~/Library/Preferences/KDE
> sudo chown -R g /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist
Next command outputs "nothing to load"
> sudo launchctl load 
> /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist
With the "-w" option, it's OK.
> sudo launchctl load -w 
> /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist

Compilation (about 10 hours for total process on 2009 MacBook Pro 4Gb 
RAM) OK.
Launching digikam via double click in App Folder->MacPorts->KDE4->digikam
I've 2 icons bouncing in the taskbar : digikam icon and the unknown icon 
for drkonqui.
40 seconds then the unknown icon became the right icon of drkonqui and 
drkonqui crashes.
It's all...

Investigations :
> cd 
> /opt/local/var/macports/software/digikam/1.8.0_0+geoloc+kipi/Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/
> ./digikam.app/Contents/MacOS/digikam

Same things, exactly : 2 icons bouncing, etc.
No message.

Unable to debug:

I've org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist loaded :

> MacBook-Pro-de-La-FIRME:MacOS g$ sudo launchctl load 
> /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist

Any idea ?
I really want work for digikam project by writing a clear abstract to 
have Digikam on MacOSX, usable for non mac geeks or sysadmins...

Thanks in advance,

G.
