[Digikam-users] Can't install 4.13

[Philip Johnsson]

Good to know that you solved it but it's only temporary as I guess you now
always have a pending update of libastro1 and if you update then digikam
gets uninstalled? If so Digikam on my kubuntu-backports PPA might need a
rebuild to work with latest kde 4.14 updates.
