Thanks, I'll try that. By saying I should comment out two lines, you mean that the boos patch still should be applied, right? Or is NO patch required, at all, anymore? Then there would be three lines, as far as I can see... ;)

Yes, my bad. It was three lines there..., but if you add the cd core and cd .. It would be like 5 lines :)
Yes, you can commented all those lines and it should be ok |
Logn story short - try the SlackBuild below:
Code:
#!/bin/sh |

Success! Thanks again, gargamel |

As an update, I'm current building digiKam 2.9.0, using the script provided by tomtomjkw in post 18, above.
Thank you. :hattip: However, to do so I had to build and install Qjson and OpenCV. OpenCV took about 30 minutes or so to build and at this point digikam is only 20% through the process so it looks like just those two will take well over an hour. All of this just to get the kipi-plugins for Gwenview. There has to be an simpler way to get the kipi-plugins that are suppose to be available for at least two other KDE applications. I tried the version 1.90 plugins and digiKam of the same version number, but the plugins didn't work with Gwenview, with or without digiKam 1.90 installed. |
I've been using willysr's scripts for digikam & dependencies, and I'm running 2.9 without any issues!
Hopefully he'll be able to contribute all his work to slackbuilds.org since it's a bit easier managing everything through sbopkg. Thanks again! |
digiKam has it's own maintainer in SBo which is Frank Caraballo and he will push updates when Slackware 14.0 gets released

Which, btw, reminds me that during the build of digiKam it was looking for nepomuk. I didn't notice if it was looking for the other two of the evil triplets. As I've said before, I would like to see a working, real world demonstration of how those three are an actual benefit to the end user. |
@cwizardone
Perhaps it was easier for Digikam developers to maintain one monolithic package, don't see any redmond-style approach here; I'm in the same situation as you - don't use Digikam, just the plugins, but I am far from questioning the developer's decision. |

I was just using digiKam and it looks like they built the package around the plug-ins. Since we are being forced to install it to get the kipi-plugins, digiKam should be part of the standard KDE installation. |
Well, it's part of the extragear actually just like k3b
But digikam has many dependencies, so that's probably why it isn't included in slackware by default |
Extragear?
You won't get there from the main KDE site. I had to do a search for it to find it and it is hopelessly out of date: http://extragear.kde.org/ But nice to know it is there, I guess. :) |
Yes, the activity of those projects are mainly in GIT, not in the public website :)
