[KPhotoAlbum] Compiling KPA with KFace

[Martin Jost]

Hello,

I tried to compile KPA with the interface for face recognition.
I pulled KPA from git today for this.

First I didn't had the correct dependencies installed.
That compilation and linking succeeded.

But after I installed the libs and include files, now the link fails
with a missing symbol.
(Note:
Between those two compilations I did

make clean
cmake clean .
git clean -f
rm CMakeCache.txt

----

cmake .
make

to start over.

cmake .

How can I fix this - I'm really curious for the face detection... ;-)

P.S.:
What about a new official release with this feature ?

Hi Martin!

That is odd ... I just tried (again ;-) to compile KPA from git master and it
worked just fine ...

I did not do an in-tree build, but created a build directory (which can easily
wiped by rm -r *). Perhaps, there are some object files left causing this?

Does it also happen with a "clean" new git copy and after

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

?

I think we will do a new release including the face detection and recognition
features soon, as we also added a lot of new features and fixed a lot of
issues the last weeks/months. At least, Jesper said so ;-)

Cheers, Tobias
