Bug Description

Binary package hint: digikam

I tried tu install simpleviewer Flash Export as described in the Dialog Box.

1) There is no versioning at the simpleviewer page, so how can one determine which version is currently downloaded from simplaeviewer.net (certainly not an issue of digikam)
2) When the simpleviewer.zip archive was downloaded there it failed to be installed by the plugin. There is no indication about what is missing. Which file is attempt to load etc. Giving a more detailed error message would certainly help to find a workaround.
Currently it just say "installation failed"... well, not very helpfull.

Thanks

Chris

This same thing happens to me with Gwenview, on kubuntu karmic.
- when I try to install the 'simpleviewwer.zip' via:.....menu/plugins/export/export to flash...
t just says that the installation failed and no more explanation.

What can I do?.....I'd love some feedback!

Thanks everyone!
