[KPhotoAlbum] Building KPA 4.7.2 on OpenSuse 42.1 failing because of libkface

[Martin Jost]

Hello,

I'm trying to build KPA 4.7.2 on OpenSuse 42.1 - but it fails.

cmake claims it found the libkface: (my emphasis)

But then it fails, seemingly because of libkface:

I understood that Opensuse 42.1 comes with a newer libkface version,
than KPA currently supports.
So I tried to remove all '*face*'  packages I could find. Still it
behaves like described above. (Note: I had removed the build directory
completely and recreated, before starting to do cmake/build - so no left
over older stuff)

For the moment I would be happy to be able to compile without libkface.
How do I achieve that ?

TIA

Martin
