Installare digiKam su Windows

Riprodotto dal blog di Dmitri Popov, 21/11/2010

Se vuoi installare digiKam su Windows, hai due possibilità: puoi compilare l'applicazione dal codice sorgente o utilizzare il KDE Windows installer. L'ultimo approccio è decisamente il più facile, ma ha uno svantaggio: il programma di installazione di solito include una vecchia versione di digiKam. Se ti va bene comunque e non vuoi "sporcarti le mani" compilando digiKam dal sorgente, allora il programma di installazione di KDE fa per te.

First off, create a new KDE directory on your hard disk, grab then the KDE installer from the KDE on Windows project’s Web site, and move it into the created directory. Launch the installer, select the Install from Internet option, and press Next.

In the Installation Directory field, enter the path to the KDE directory, and press Next. Select the End User option in the Install Mode section, and MSVC 32Bit from the Compiler Mode section.

Keep the settings in the next several screens at their defaults. When you reach the Download Server Settings screen, choose the www.winkde.org server, since it offers the newest as well as older versions of the KDE bundle. Press Next and find the version of KDE that contains the digiKam and kipi-plugins packages. Select then both packages, and press Next. Hit the Next button once again, and the installer does the rest. Wait till the installer has finished downloading and installing the software, press the Finish button, and you are done. Now you can launch and use digiKam as any other Windows application.
