Hi,
I did a dch --bpo and uploaded on debomatic

http://debomatic-amd64.debian.net/distribution#jessie-backports/digikam/4.14.0-3~bpo8+1/buildlog

Matthias, does it work for you? I can upload it on backports if nobody objects.

I did some basic tests and the application is starting correctly on a clean jessie+bpo system.

(I could use a version on mentors, but you need to fix the versioning scheme)

cheers,

Gianfranco

Hello Matthias,

Thank you for your interest in backporting digikam.  I can't speak for the 
other maintainers, but I personally do not have time to maintain backports and 
I would welcome your efforts to do so.

I have not looked at your package.  But I was a little surprised that the 
proposed backport of 4.14.0-1 was versioned 4.14.0-1.1~bpo8+1.   I did read 
through http://backports.debian.org/Contribute/ (thanks to Mattia Rizzolo for 
the reference!) and under the "basic rules" it says to simply append "~bpo..." 
to the version.  Do you really also need to change from "-1" to "-1.1"? 

Best,
-Steve
