True. So is the price...
I guess they do have a point - how many people really use the source
packages?

Just load the images from a "directory" into digikam. A USB stick is
just that anyway. For the weirder USB constructions (ie other than USB
mass storage) digikam is pretty good, though I don't see the point of
hooking up my camera to the computer, draining its battery, when I can
much easier take the flash card out and shove it into the card reader.

Where digikam fell flat for me was its diabolical capability to export
to html photo albums.

This could be a general problem with the KDE launch feedback. Perhaps
when there's no app icon found or specified? File this as bug.

Sounds like 9.2 USB plug to me... can't wait to see next week to axe
this one!
