Thank you (and Matthias) for the pointer to the use of an older version.

I have tried this version: 

https://github.com/KDE/libkface/archive/v14.11.80.zip

...and KPA "finds" it but eventually dies with:

[ 78%] Building CXX object
CMakeFiles/kphotoalbum.dir/AnnotationDialog/ProposedFaceDialog.cpp.o
Linking CXX executable kphotoalbum
CMakeFiles/kphotoalbum.dir/Settings/CategoryItem.cpp.o: In function
`Settings::CategoryItem::renameCategory(DB::MemberMap*)':

`Settings::CategoryItem::newCategoryNameSaved(QString, QString)'

failed
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/kphotoalbum.dir/all] Error 2
Makefile:127: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2



The offending code is:

#ifdef HAVE_KFACE
    // Also tell the face management page to update the recognition database
    emit newCategoryNameSaved(m_categoryOrig, m_category);
#endif

Can you point me at specific version of libkface source code?

Thanks a lot. I'm a big fan of KPA!

PS: Matthias. No, I've not tried libkgeomap yet.
