It doesn't, but I'm game. What should I do to get you the information 
you need?

Yes.

I think we're going in circles.

When I tried to install digikam from your repo, it said "Failed to 
completely install all dependencies (broken cache)"

I tried running sudo apt-get install -f but it just removed the 
half-installed beta and reset me. The error comes back when I try to 
reinstall.

You suggested that I install libexiv2-0.10, but when I tried to do that, 
it said, "Error: A later version is already installed."

Well, yes, but that's the whole point of the bug report in the first 
place: installing this beta manually is hard. The version in the 
official Ubuntu repo is out-of-date and contains a critical, 
show-stopper bug (renaming a photo after importing it makes it vanish) 
that is fixed in the beta. Which means that potential digiKam users 
should have the option of installing the fixed (but very hard to 
manually install) beta, which is why it's a bug in Ubuntu that an 
official supported repo isn't carrying it.
