[Digikam-users] Digikam 4.0 won't run on Linux Mint 17.1: vanishes after album scan

AFAICT the original failure to install was because the Mint repositories 
had a priority of 700 which beat the 500 for the added PPAs.
I would up the priority of the PPAs then do a 'apt-get upgrade' as well 
as installing kipi-plugins.
