[Digikam-users] Help building on OS X

[Agustin Lobo]

Why not having a dmg? Installing Digikam on Mac OSX is just a nightmare.
Such an excellent software (the best photo cataloging system) is
unavailable in practice for most Mac OSX users.
I'm finally using lightroom (which is definetly not as good!) just
because cannot afford investing so much time on installing every new
version of digikam. What an absurd situation.
