KGeoTag 1.3.0 released
I'm happy to announce the new release 1.3.0 of KGeoTag, the standalone KDE geotagging program!
The ChangeLog contains the following changes:
- New (Bug #458537): Allow setting coordinates directly from the clipboard. As of now, Google Maps' format as well as OpenStreetMap's Geo URI scheme is supported.
- New: It is now possible to open an image with the system's default image viewer (for closer inspection), either from the image list(s), or from the preview widget.
- Bugfix (#457020): Use "Folder", not "Directory" according to KDE's style/vocabulary guidelines.
- New: Files and/or directories given on the command line are now loaded after startup (which can e.g. also be triggered via "Open with" from a file manager like Dolphin).
- Update: Updated the timezones data files to 2021c (cf. Timezone Boundary Builder's Release Announcement.
- Change: As Marble now has a decent versioning scheme (at least since the KDE Apps release 21.12.3), KGeoTag now has a defined dependecy for Marble: It now depends on at least Marble 21.12.0. It actually can be built against older versions as well, but due to the lack of proper version bumps, there was no way to define a definitive version to depend on until now.
- New/Bugfix (#452534): Added a handbook stub.
Notice to the packagers
Just to say it again: If you're packaging KGeoTag for your distribution, and Marble 21.12.0 is not available yet, you can still build KGeoTag if you were able to build it before. The dependecy has only been added because it's the first Marble version we can rely on (cf. the ChangeLog above).
In this case, simply remove the version from CMakeFiles.txt and you're done. The following patch does the trick:
--- CMakeLists.txt.orig 2022-09-04 14:27:25.729672632 +0200 +++ CMakeLists.txt 2022-09-04 14:27:52.961403115 +0200 @@ -8,7 +8,7 @@ set(QT_MIN_VERSION "5.11.0") set(KF5_MIN_VERSION "5.44.0") set(KExiv2_MIN_VERSION "5.0.0") -set(Marble_MIN_VERSION "21.12.0") +set(Marble_MIN_VERSION "") set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 17) set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED ON)
Have a lot of fun with KGeoTag :-)
