But, keep in mind that digikam is not an easy package, it has many dependencies, and any breakage in it could destroy the user photos database, or even delete them.

The packaging efforts are currently stored in svn, under the svn://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-kde repository, in the folders: kde-extras/digikam/{trunk,branches,tags} This was managed by svn-buildpackage, afaik. Most other packages have already been migrated to git (Yet another point to start with another package). I think that the first steps are to checkout the repository subfolder and get it to build. More info in: http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/pkgkdesvn.html and the debian wiki, in particular: https://wiki.debian.org/svn-buildpackage Happy hacking, -- A computer scientist is someone who, when told to "Go to Hell," sees the "go to," rather than the destination, as harmful.
