digiKam Coding Sprint 2014

Since the frameworks implementation is not ready yet, the development is performed in frameworks branch of each repository:

remember to run this code:

$>git checkout master
$>git pull --rebase
$>git checkout -b frameworks origin/frameworks
$>git branch -a
* frameworks
  master
  remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master
  remotes/origin/frameworks
  remotes/origin/master

for following folders:

digikam-software-compilation
code
extra (some libs must be compiled with frameworks version before building digiKam)

Troubleshooting

CMake compilation command:

$pwd
/home/slavik/git/digikam-software-compilation
$mkdir build && cd build
$cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debug -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr  ..

if you install digiKam and you have problems with kio-slaves, for example, on Archlinux (no images in albums and errors), use -DKDE_INSTALL_USE_QT_SYS_PATHS=ON

$cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debug -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DKDE_INSTALL_USE_QT_SYS_PATHS=ON ..
