After upgrading to wily and digikam 4.12.0 the information about geolocation is completely gone. Also gone is the ability to tag photos mit geo-information. I did a clean install of wily in a virtual machine - still no geolocation. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install/upgrade wily 15.10 2. fire up digikam 3. stare at the missing information ;-)
Geolocation is optional at compilation time. digiKam continue to support Geolocation, and this will not be changed in the future. It's a main feature. In other words, it's a DOWNSTREAM problem. Report it to packagers. Gilles Caulier
Reported to kubuntu-ppa as Bug #1511503.
same issue here, I hope kubuntu downstream can fix this, are there any alternative ppa´s otherwiese?
Having read https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/marble/+bug/1511503 it turns out that there is a major dependency problem in conflict with marble using Qt5 libraries. Both marble and digikam access a common library libkgeomap2, but in different versions if I read it the right way. Not too promising.
