Due to the fact the Intrepid has dropped libkonq4-dev in favour of libkonq5-dev - This package no longer builds on Intrepid. I am in contact with the upstream author to inquire about a kde4 version of this package.

[Stefan Lesicnik (stefanlsd)]

I have contacted the upstream author about this package and am waiting a reply. For anyone interested in taking a look - attached is my current debdiff.

The problem lies in the building of the package. When trying to build with libkonq5-dev, kdelibs5-dev is required. The package is also dependant on libkexif1-dev which is not kdelibs5-dev compatible as of this time. The package builds in Debian Sid and Sid still has KDE 3.5.

Hi Stefan,

I've spent some time trying to use libkde4, but unfortunately, it's
far from being usable with showimg and I don't have time to spend on
it those days...
