Installing digikam 5.3 on Kubuntu 16.04 with KDE 5,8,5 from the backport ppa

I just uploaded digikam 5.4 packages built (building at the moment) for
users of ubuntu 16.04 (or derivative distros) with updated version of KDE
to KDE 5.8.x instead of the standard KDE 5.5.5 that ubuntu 16.04 comes
with. IF you have installed and use the updated KDE 5.8.x on your system
then add my "kubuntu-backports" PPA so you use BOTH my "extra" PPA AND my
"kubuntu-backports" PPA. IF you use the standard KDE 5.5.x that ubuntu
16.04 comes with then ONLY use my "extra" PPA as before. This only apply to
ubuntu 16.04 and not users of ubuntu 16.10 that keep on using ONLY my
"extra" PPA. The "kubuntu-backports" PPA only contains rebuilds of packages
in my "extra" PPA for other versions of KDE but "kubuntu-backports" PPA can
NOT be used alone.
