Version:           0.9.0 (using KDE 3.2.1, SuSE)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.3 (SuSE Linux)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.5-7.155.29-default

digikam-0.9.0 installed on my partially updated SuSE 9.1 with KDE 3.2.1 only after applying the following patches to eliminate the following four errors and after ignoring a couple of warnings about visibility. Since source seems to be preparted for use with KDE < 3.3 and since dependencies section in README states "KDE >= 3.x" this behaviour might be a bug. 

I was using SuSE 9.1, KDE 3.2.1, gcc-3.3.3-41 (SuSE), sqlite-3.3.8, exiv2-0.12, libkexif-0.2.5, libgphoto2-2.3.1, libkipi-0.1.4, kipi-plugins-0.1.2, liblcms-1.15-30 (SuSE), libtiff-3.6.1-38.26 (SuSE), libpng-1.2.14, digikam-0.9.0, digikamimageplugins-0.9.0.

The first error is due to digikam/libs/dialogs/deletedialog.cpp using member 'del' from class 'KStdGuiItem' and using 'setButtonGuiItem' introduced with KDE 3.3. This can be patched by rolling-in a line of code from KDE 3.3 and using an alternative function from earlier KDE version. 

The second error is due to digikam/digikam/digikamapp.cpp using member 'synchronousRun' from class 'KIO::NetAccess' introduced with KDE 3.4. Since I do not understand the code I took a brute force approach and rolled-in quite some code from KDE 3.4. A better patch should be possible when understanding what 'synchronousRun' is used for. 

The next two errors I found onyl after patching the first two. 

The thrid error is about two undefined references in libkipi.so when linking digicam. Since I could not figure out what to do I instructed the linker to ignore this error. Now I'm waiting for digikam to crash :-)

The last error is due to digikam/imageplugins/imageeffect_hsl.cpp using undefined 'setXValue' and 'setYValue'. The API documentation does not mention when these have been introduced. I replaced them with 'setValues' and 'xVaule' and 'yValue' from KDE 3.2. Since I do not understand what the code does some body would need to check if this patch really works. 

Note that I also had to patch kipi-plugins-0.1.2/kipi-plugins/htmlexport/generator.cpp by adding '#include <qimage.h>' to solve an error about 'QImage' having incomplete definition.
