compile error

Expected Results:  
compile ok

This package contains kcomponentdata.h but this don't have setAboutData class function.

This problem actually break compatibility with debian ?!?

PhotoLayoutsEditor has been developed using KDELibs 4.7. Update your version of KDELibs, please, and it will compile.

Thanks for your response!
but this is not possible. KDELibs is only in debian experimental and due 
dependecies is really hard to upgrade.

Testing and unstable debian repository contains only 4.6

So the point is: if there are not other solution, I'm affraid Digikam is 
not compatible with the current debian distribution.

May be this is a problem of debian, and not of digikam, but this cut off 
a lot of linux user :(
And also who use debian testing and unstable!

You could also try to upgrade your KDELibs to at least 4.5 (the method mentioned in errors track was introduced in this version of KDE).
