That's how it is supposed to be. 3.0 was not released yet, hence anything 
before that is not 3.0. As with other KDE software packages get a number below 
the not yet release version e.g. 4.9.40 for a KDE 4.10 alpha.

The digikam package in Playground is not a beta or alpha release but just a 
git snapshot so 2.9+git is accurate.

One thing to notice about digikam > 2.9 is that it will crash other apps that 
use kipi-plugins with KDE 4.9, e.g. ksnapshot. It's a known issue, not sure 
what the digikam devs are going to do about it.
