[Digikam-users] testing XMP fixes, git not compiling / configuring

[jon piesing]

Gilles, all,

Now I've got the version from git to compile (thanks!!), is it possible to install it alongside an existing install of a released version of digikam or does it have to replace the existing installation?
Currently I have 2.5.0 with the main binary installed as /usr/bin/digikam.


Jon
