SUMMARY
KPhotoAlbum leaving user totally clueless about missing modules in
"Funktionsstatus -- KPhotoAlbum"
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install KPhotoAlbum via system package installer (e.g. apt-get for debian)
and run app for the first time.
2. Chose to open in demo mode and skip creating personal database for now.
3. In KPhotoAlbum main window, go to menu bar "Hilfe" -> "Funktionsstatus von
KPhotoAlbum" ("Help" -> "Function status of KPhotoAlbum"). A window is shown
containing an overview of modules available for currently installed and running
KPhotoAlbum.
OBSERVED RESULT
1. The overview of modules that are currently available/installed and are not
installed does not specify how to add a missing module. No module name is
given, no package name is given. It is actually recommended to compile
KPhotoAlbum from sources which is useless as it has just been installed using
the system's own package management and this was done on a purpose (e.g. to
avoid conflicting user installations messing up system's own package
management).
Example: "Kartenansicht für geolokalisierte Bilder" - "Nein" means this
functionality currently is not available. What should I do to fix this? The
module's section states that KPhotoAlbum needs be compiled using Marble but it
does not say if current version has been compiled using marble support and what
would be needed to add this module functionality.
EXPECTED RESULT
1. If a module and/or functionality is currently missing / not working
KPhotoAlbum should state what EXACTLY to do to add this missing feature so it
is availble. For someone like me who prefers not to compile things but instead
use clean system's own package management it would be important to have the
name of the missing package(s). k3b is doing something similar and tells
exactly what is missing for a specific feature to be supported.
