Description makosoft 2008-02-05 17:57:34 UTC 
Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 4.2.2 (Gentoo 4.2.2 p1.0) 
OS:                Linux

The trunk version of libkexiv2 doesn't seem to compile against exiv2 0.16:

In file included from /home/aidan/kde4/src/KDE/extragear-libs/libkexiv2/libkexiv2/kexiv2.cpp:31:
/home/aidan/kde4/src/KDE/extragear-libs/libkexiv2/libkexiv2/kexiv2private.h:90: error: redefinition of 'class Exiv2::XmpData'
/usr/include/exiv2/xmp.hpp:179: error: previous definition of 'class Exiv2::XmpData'
make[2]: *** [libkexiv2/libkexiv2/CMakeFiles/kexiv2.dir/kexiv2.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [libkexiv2/libkexiv2/CMakeFiles/kexiv2.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2
makeobj[0]: Leaving directory `/home/aidan/kde4/build/KDE/extragear-libs'

The reason for this appears to be some bad version detection code in libkexiv2/libkexiv2/kexiv2private.h which incorrectly detects 0.16 as being a version without XMP support:

// Check if Exiv2 support XMP

#if (EXIV2_MAJOR_VERSION ==0 && EXIV2_MINOR_VERSION >=15 && EXIV2_PATCH_VERSION >=99) || \
    (EXIV2_MAJOR_VERSION >0)
#   define _XMP_SUPPORT_ 1
#endif

If this is corrected to detect Exiv2 0.16 and later as having XMP support, libkexiv2 compiles again.

What is the status now? Can you compile it using more recent versions?
Comment 2 Jordi Polo 2008-12-01 06:23:27 UTC 
It works for me, anyway I sent it to the buildsystem
Comment 3 FiNeX 2008-12-20 18:48:42 UTC 
Works for me too. Probably it was a temporary problem
