--- Comment #61 from Jaroslav Skarvada <jskar...@redhat.com> ---
I built the git head (at the time I started with it it was
v7.5.0-322-gb6a672426b) and it works for me. This time it was nearly
straightforward experience, I only hit one MXE FTBFS bug and created PR for it
(https://github.com/mxe/mxe/pull/2761).

I think you hit another bug, because it seems the digiKam Start panel LNK
(installed as C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\digiKam
7.3.0\digiKam.lnk) has for some reason workdir set to the C:\Program
Files\digiKam\bin, but the libgphoto drivers are loaded from the current dir
which means if you start digiKam from the Start menu it will not work. You need
to either:

a) start digiKam from the C:\Program Files\digiKam or 
b) edit the LNK file to have the workdir set to the C:\Program Files\digiKam
(i.e. without the bin) or
c) move the camera drivers (./libgphoto2 and ./libgphoto2_port directories) to
the ./bin directory

I don't know what's the best solution. Unfortunately, we cannot compile the
libgphoto2 with the absolute path (because it is not known before the
installation) and IMHO the libgphoto2 API currently doesn't allow changing the
load path dynamically at the runtime (but there is an RFE for it).

Btw the following dependencies are needed for compilation under Fedora 34, it
can be installed by:
# dnf install autoconf automake bash bison bzip2 cmake extra-cmake-modules flex
gcc-c++ gdk-pixbuf2-devel gettext git git gperf icoutils intltool libtool lzip
make nsis openssl openssl-devel patch perl python python3-lxml p7zip
qt5-qtbase-devel ruby sed subversion unzip wget xz

Is there any wiki or something where I could put this information? I think it
could be useful for more people.
