Compiling digikam on MacOS with homebrew

[Gilles Caulier]

Hi Stan,

The script to build digiKam with Macports are located here :

https://invent.kde.org/graphics/digikam/-/tree/master/project/bundles/macports?ref_type=heads

Only the first script depend og Macports, all the rest inherit of
Macports installation. In others words, you can replace Macports to
HomeBrew easily

Best
