Hi,
I've been working on the update of graphics/opencv to the latest version
(3.4.1) and have run into an issue with the update to opencv breaking
libkface. See:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=210505
Looking at libkface, I see that it doesn't seem to be maintained any
more. It seems like digikam stopped using it, and that was the only
thing using it. I also noticed Fedora (and possibly others) have stopped
packaging it because of this same issue and the fact that it doesn't
seem to be maintained any more.
The patch for opencv changes digicam to use opencv directly rather than
using libkface, but I'm not familiar enough with digicam to be confident
that this provides the same functionality.
I would like input from some [email protected] person to figure out if
this change is OK and we can deprecate libkface or if we need to figure
out how to fix libkface.
Thanks,
Steve
