Hello.
I'm running Kubuntu 8.10 amd_64.
When I installed Gwenview 2.2.0 it un-installed the Kipi-plugins and digiKam. When went to re-install them the package manager said it would un-install Gwenview and libkipi6.

Without the Kipi-plugins, Gwenview is near worthless for my purposes. Is there anyway to re-install the Kipi-plugins, and digiKam, and get Gwenview to use the plugins?

Thank you.

I think this is a distro related issue. You are more likely to get a proper response over at the Kubuntu forums. That being said, there are some Kubuntu devs around here, so you might be lucky ;)

As xinix pointed out, it seems a distro related problem.

Not really a problem actually. Gwenview in KDE 4.2.0 depends on an updated version of libexiv that is incompatible with the old version the KDE3 kipi-plugins need.

If you add this repository you will be able to install the kde4 version of kipi-plugins and digikam, which will stop them from being removed:
Code: Select all
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/digikam-experimental/ppa/ubuntu intrepid main

Hello, My name is Johanneke and I have a question about a problem I can't seem to solve.

When I put the code into my repository and do an update I get the following message;

"GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net intrepid Release: The following signaturescouldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 0BF0F083E353B3E9
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems"

I know that I have to import the key (0BF0F083E353B3E9) but there is where I get stuck..

When I use the folowing command:
"sudo gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key 0BF0F083E353B3E9"

I get the following error:
WARNING: unsafe ownership on configuration file `/home/trips/.gnupg/gpg.conf'

If I do this as SU, it works, but then the seccond step does not work;

"gpg --armor --export 0BF0F083E353B3E9 | apt-key add -"

The error I get is:
"gpg: no writable keyring found: eof
gpg: error reading `-': general error
gpg: import from `-' failed: general error"

I am using KDE4.2.0 Intrepid...

I am stuck, I cant seem to find the info on Google (I think I don't know where to look) and this post was the closest match for my problem, maybe I am doing just something really stupid and it is solved really easy, but for the moment I don't have any idea.

Can someone give me a hint in the right direction...???

Thanks in advance,
Johanneke
