[digiKam-users] Compiling digikam and exiv2

[woenx]

I made it :) Thanks for you help.

Of course, I meant Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS, the current Long term support version
until Ubuntu 20.04 LTS is released.

I have written the steps I followed, in the case someone is interested:


Instructions for compiling digikam from source in Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS:

- Uncomment (#) from lines containing 'deb-src' in /etc/apt/sources.list and
save.
- sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && sudo apt autoremove
- sudo apt-get install -y subversion make cmake autoconf pkg-config g++
exifprobe libcurl4-openssl-dev libssh-dev clang checkinstall # Needed to
compile exiv2.
- sudo apt-get build-dep -y exiv2 # dependencies for exiv2.


Download last version of digikam from git: 
- sudo apt install git
- git clone https://invent.kde.org/kde/digikam.git digikam


Compile exiv2 from source:

- Get exiv2 0.27.1 (latest) release from
https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/releases/tag/0.27.1
- Extract to folder.
- Copy script ~/digikam/digikam/project/scripts/bootstrap-exiv2.linux.sh to
main exiv2 folder (where CMakeLists.txt is located).
- Run the script: ./bootstrap-exiv2.linux.sh
- sudo make install


Compile digikam:

- Install build dependencies for digikam. Make sure libexiv2 is not
installed from Ubuntu's repository:

# (this is basically 'sudo apt-get build-dep digikam' but without libexiv2
and including qttools5-dev-tools)

- make
- sudo make install # or 'sudo checkinstall' if you want to save a deb
package. 

And that's it. If there are some icons missing, it is likely that you also
need to install the package 'breeze-icon-theme', but you can choose
'Humanity' in the settings instead. apparently, you don't need to compile
opencv from source, but I have not tested it extensively yet.
