-- DEPENDENCIES -------------------------------------------------------
CMake >= 2.8.x http://www.cmake.org
libqt >= 4.6.x http://www.qtsoftware.com
libkde >= 4.4.x http://www.kde.org
libexiv2 >= 0.21.0 http://www.exiv2.org
-- INSTALL ------------------------------------------------------------
In order to compile, especially when QT3/Qt4 are installed at the same time,
just use something like that:
# export VERBOSE=1
# export QTDIR=/usr/lib/qt4/
# export PATH=$QTDIR/bin:$PATH
# cmake .
# make
Usual CMake options:
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX : decide where the program will be install on your computer.
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE : decide which type of build you want. You can chose between "debugfull", "debug", "profile", "relwithdebinfo" and "release". The default is "relwithdebinfo" (-O2 -g).
Compared to old KDE3 autoconf options:
"cmake . -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull" is equivalent to "./configure --enable-debug=full"
"cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr" is equivalent to "./configure --prefix=/usr"

Note: To know KDE install path on your computer, use 'kde-config --prefix' command line like this (with full debug object enabled):
"cmake . -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix`"
