[Digikam-users] Digikam 2.2 does not start on OpenSuse 11.4

[Larry CK]

Thank you Remco,

that explains it. I'll try to compile it on virtual pc (so not to mess 
my live system).

Otherwise I'll just wait untill DK2.2 is available in OpenSuSE upstream 
repos and switch back to DK2.1.0

Regards
Larry
