[KPhotoAlbum] problems compiling KPA on Ubuntu 16.4 (LTS)

[Tobias Leupold]

Hi Andreas!

Version 5.0.1 didn't have this code yet; it would be a bad idea to build this 
version though, because we fixed a lot of (porting) bugs and regressions with 
5.1.

If you can't update to a more recent Qt version, probably, you can try to 
build the lastest KDE4 version of KPA? You'll probably get less bugs there.

But the real question is: why is there no packaged KPA on Ubuntu you can use 
as-is?

Cheers,
Tobias
