and libkexiv2 from svn trunk to compile digiKam (will be released with KDE
4.2). To extract libraries source code from svn, look at bottom of this page
for details :
http://www.digikam.org/drupal/download?q=download/svn
For others depencies, consult the README file. There are also optional
depencies to enable some new features as lensfun for lens
auto-correction, and marble for geolocation.
The digikam.org web site has been redesigned for the new KDE4 series.
All screenshots have been updated and a lots of video demos have been
