[Digikam-users] Digikam Version control

[Carl McGrath]

OK, I am back to "normal", my 3.5.0 install is now digikam 3.5.0-2.15 
running on KDE 4.12.1, openSUSE 13.1 and all my favorite tools are back.

What happened:
1. The digikam package 3.5.0-2.15 made it to the KDE upstream repo 
before the load of the KDE 4.12.1 packages by a few hours.
2. When I "backed down" to the digikam from the OSS repo, I missed some 
component packages supporting Kipi Plugins.
The dependency resolver logic likely got confused by the different 
package numbering sequences.

If I had remembered to run digikam from the command line (CLI), I would 
have seen the library mismatch errors stream by.
For me, that is always the best place to start debugging.

Gilles - perhaps a future support feature/enhancement - a way to see the 
errors normally posted to stderr from within a GUI session?

Thanks for everyone's help here
