[Kde-imaging] Build dependency on Marble and MySQL-Server?

[Frederik Schwarzer]

Hi,

it feels strange that Digikam has build-time dependencies on Marble
and MySQL-Server.

Marble seems to be needed only for a small feature that most of the
people would not need. Would it be possible to make that optional?



Without the MySQL-Server installed, CMake errors out but says before
Digikam could be built. There might be a mistake there somwhere.

There was a way once to configure the database backend. Is that gone now?


CMake also warns:
  libkdcraw: Version information not found, your version is probably too old.

libkdcraw is a current master version, though. Can I do something so that the
version info can be found?
