            Bug ID: 360796
           Summary: Difficulties to compile with plugins and how to solve
                    them
           Product: kphotoalbum
           Version: 4.7.1
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kpab...@willden.org
          Reporter: schleth...@web.de

This is not strictly a bug report.  At best a suggestion to add to the compile
docs.

I tried to compile 4.7.1 under openSuSE Leap42 and ran into lots of
difficulties with the plugins (kipi, kface and marble).  The program itself
compiled OK, but the plugins were missing, although I had all the
*-devel-packages and libs installed.  Fiddling with the environment variables
and of (beware!) the include paths in the source files only got me deeper and
deeper into a mess.

The error messages of cmake or during make all hinted to "path/file" not found
for some includes or config-files.  Nothing definite.

Finally I found the reason:  some plugins were already present on my system in
the qt5-flavour.  And this breaks it.  It seems having qt4 and qt5 libs on the
system makes building things unpleasant at least.

Solution: downgrade kipi, marble and kface to the qt4-versions.  

This is for openSuSE only:  In Yast delete/uninstall the corresponding
qt5-libraries (for these plugins only).  Then the downgrade is provided as one
of the solutions to the dependency mismatch.

Please fee free to point me to the proper place, if this is the wrong place to
post/discuss.

Reproducible: Always
