Bug Description

Binary package hint: digikam

Digikam seems to miss dependencies. To reproduce do

- Install Ubuntu Feisty (not Kubuntu) from the desktop CD, or go to a machine with a Ubuntu installation without any KDE stuff
- Log into a fresh user account, which has never used KDE
- Install digikam with "sudo apt-get install digikam"
- Open an album with pictures right-click one and choose "Move to trash". You get an error message that the file cannot be renamed. Probably the directory which is the trash for digikam does not exist yet.
- Do "sudo apt-get install kdebase",
- Try to delete the photo again. It will work now.

So it seems that the kdebase installation made a trash directory available to digikam (it is not the GNOME trash directory, there I do not see any of my deleted photos).

I do not know which package is really the one needed, as the kdebase installation pulled in around 20 packages.

Note also that the kdebase installation pulled in kdeprint and this is probably needed to be able to print from digikam.

I am with the current Feisty on an x86_64 box, but this problem probably occurs also on 32-bit.

Known issue. Installing kdebase-kio-plugins fix it. See

I really hope that gnome uses the trash draft from freedesktop
too.
