Last month we released 0.7.3, now we present the latest and last version in the 0.7 release cycle: 0.7.4. This new version is almost the same as the previous, but it contains a lot of updates, provided by the translators. The tarballs of digiKam became pretty big due to the detailed documentation digiKam has. That is why we splitted the tarball into the main application and a seperate tarball for the documentation. With this release one crash is fixed as well. More information about that can be found at: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109946 Last, but not least, there are already Kubuntu packages available. See below for the location. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <<< About digiKam >>> digiKam is a digital photograph management application for KDE, which makes importing and organizing digital photos a "snap". The photos can be organized in albums which can be sorted chronologically, by directory layout or by custom collections. Additionally images can be tagged and these tagged images can be viewed in virtual albums. An easy to use interface is provided that enables you to connect to your camera and preview, download and/or delete your images. digiKam includes a fast Image Editor with a few advanced image editing tools. You can use the Image Editor to view your photographs and to make corrections and alterations. A stand alone version of image editor named ShowFoto is also available.
