First of all apologize for this ot.

I don't mean that, but i'm quite sure time ago you said to mandriva people
digikam final should have been released within mandriva 2009.0.

Ok that's my fault, i could have added it in contribs. but it's not easy since libkipi & libCo
have changed their library versioning (don't mean the number you use in pc file).
Anyway people wants kde4 and mandriva push it up. That helps a lot kde developers
since it is into a distro.

Mandriva has already done it as you know. And i believe will do again, I'm not helio
though. The point is how can you have feed backs from normal users if they can't install
your package since it depends on kde trunk? Please don't say build kdegraphics and then
digikam/kipi-plugins. So i believe we need to take that in account...
But maybe that is only a problem of mine... I do hope other distro packagers tell their
opinion here....
