[Digikam-users] Packages of Digikam 5 beta 2 for Ubuntu 15.10 on my PPA

[Philip Johnsson]

Question to users of my PPA with Digikam packages for Ubuntu.

I'm working on packages of Digikam 4.14.0 and Digikam 5 beta 6 for Ubuntu
16.04 (xenial) and it looks like there will be problems using outdated
Marble with qt4 support that Digikam 4.14.0 use for maps in the geolocation
feature. Looks like Marble that support QT4 have a bug with google maps API
and therefor doesn't show google maps in Digikam but other map features
work.

Do you guys want the geolocation feature with the google map bug or should
I disable geolocation all together as with the official ubuntu Digikam
packages for digikam 4.12.0? Digikam 5 beta 6 will have full geolocation
features.

Regards,

Philip
