-- CONTACT ------------------------------------------------------------
If you have questions, comments, suggestions to make do email at :
kde-imaging@kde.org
IRC channel from irc.freenode.org server: #kde-imaging
#digikam
IMPORTANT : the bugreports and wishlist are hosted by the KDE bugs report
system who can be contacted by the standard Kde help menu of plugins dialog.
A mail will be automaticly sent to the Kipi mailing list.
There is no need to contact directly the Kipi mailing list for a bug report
or a devel wish.
The current Kipi bugs and devel wish reported to the Kde bugs report can be see
at this url :
http://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?product=kipiplugins&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED
-- INSTALL ------------------------------------------------------------
In order to compile, especially when QT3/Qt4 are installed at the same time,
just use something like that:
# export VERBOSE=1
# export QTDIR=/usr/lib/qt4/
# export PATH=$QTDIR/bin:$PATH
# cmake .
# make
# sudo make install
Usual CMake options :
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX : decide where the program will be install on your computer.
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE : decide which type of build you want. You can chose between "debugfull", "debug", "profile", "relwithdebinfo" and "release". The default is "relwithdebinfo" (-O2 -g).
Compared to old KDE3 autoconf options:
"cmake . -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull" is equivalent to "./configure --enable-debug=full"
"cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr" is equivalent to "./configure --prefix=/usr"
More details can be found ata this url: http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/CMake#Environment_Variables
Note: To know KDE install path on your computer, use 'kde-config --prefix' command line.
