How to install Gwenview from source?

[Horváth Csaba]

Hello!

I want to install Gwenview with kipi support on a ubuntu 8.10 amd64. Libkipi
and kipi-plugins are installed, but Gwenview doesn't see that plugins.

I wanted to install Gwenview from source (svn), with enabling kipi support,
but when i type "make -f Makefile.cvs" it says that no makefile exists...

Can someone tell me that how to install Gwenview from svn on downloaded
source?
(Or enable kipi support on a Gwenview, installed from deb package?)

Thaks a lot,

Cs. Horvath

I am afraid what is happening is ubuntu 8.10 features Gwenview from
KDE4, but libkipi and kipi-plugins from KDE3. If it is the case,
rebuilding Gwenview won't help you, you need to build KDE4 versions of
libkipi and kipi-plugins.

Hello!

I want to install Gwenview from source because i think there's no KIPI support from default in the .deb package. But if i try to bulid KIPI from source, I get the same error, a non-existent Makefile, and I cannot step towards.

It is strange, that KIPI is working with Digikam, what i don't like so much...

Thaks,

Cs. H.

You probably have a KDE3 version of Digikam, which uses the KDE3 libkipi
and kipi-plugins. But you are right that Gwenview was probably not built
with KDE4 kipi support in Kubuntu 8.10.

Gwenview and libkipi are part of KDE now, so to build it you need to
rebuild the kdegraphics package. You should follow the documentation on
techbase [1] to learn about building KDE modules from source. Keep in
mind you will probably have to build kipi-plugins from source too
(kipi-plugins are in extragear/graphics in the KDE svn repository).

Yes, it can be verified by the fact that sudo apt-get install will install
different versions of libkipi when installing gwenview and digikam. So, try
doing these-

sudo apt-get remove digikam
sudo apt-get install libkexiv2-7 libkipi6

now try to build.

Hope this helps :)
