[Digikam-users] Problems upgrading DigiKam on Linux Mint

[Kim]

Thanks Mick, I finally got it working. I found a lot of similar topics 
on the Mint forum.  Some found the problem was because Mint put a lower 
priority to added ppa's. Once that was changed by this method

synaptic let me upgrade the following list that before it wouldn't or 
seemed to keep changing back.


Upgraded the following packages:
libkexiv2-11 (4:4.14.2-0ubuntu1~ubuntu14.04~ppa1) to 4:4.14.3-trusty~ppa1
libkexiv2-data (4:4.14.2-0ubuntu1~ubuntu14.04~ppa1) to 4:4.14.3-trusty~ppa1
libkexiv2-dev (4:4.14.2-0ubuntu1~ubuntu14.04~ppa1) to 4:4.14.3-trusty~ppa1
libkface-data (1.0~digikam4.0.0-0ubuntu1~ubuntu14.04~ppa2) to 
1.0~digikam4.7.0-trusty~ppa1
libkface2 (1.0~digikam4.0.0-0ubuntu1~ubuntu14.04~ppa2) to 
1.0~digikam4.4.0-trusty~ppa2
libkgeomap-data (1.0~digikam4.0.0-0ubuntu1~ubuntu14.04~ppa2) to 
1.0~digikam4.7.0-trusty~ppa1


I don't know if this was the "right" way to fix this but it did work.

Thanks,
Kim
