[Digikam-users] Easy downgrade?

[Wilkins, Vern W]

I've been tempted to downgrade because 4.2 still doesn't work right on fedora.  I've submitted bugs since 4.1 but I think they believe 4.2 fixed the problem.  The trouble I still have is in editing mode, not being able to see the image at the correct size after resizing.  Seems the resized image is always scaled to the original size, which makes things like sharpening impossible.  Changing the %view to anything doesn't work right...basically same bug that was first reported with 4.0 that seems to be lingering forever but in this case it's probably fedora developers because they did something to get around having to update so many dependencies, especially opencv.

 Just remember to also downgrade the KIPI plugins, or you could get some
surprises (I hit an undefined symbol in Geolocation with Digikam 3.5 and
KIPI 4.2...)
