** ARCHIVED VERSION (v1.2.1) ** ** YOU CAN FIND THE LATEST SOURCE CODE HERE: https://gitlab.com/lspies/photoqt ** PhotoQt 1.2.1 - Copyright (C) 2015, Lukas Spies ([email protected]), License: GPLv2 (or later) -- http://photoqt.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PhotoQt is a fast and highly configurable image viewer with a simple and nice interface. DEPENDENCIES -------------- - Qt >= 5.1 (5.2 or higher recommended) - CMake (needed for building PhotoQt) > Make sure that you have the needed Qt modules installed: image formats, multimedia, svg > Dependencies, that are needed by default, but can be disabled via CMake (see INSTALL section): - Exiv2 - GraphicsMagick > NOTE On some systems you also need the *-dev package for compiling (e.g. exiv2-dev - names can vary slightly depending on your distribution). These files usually can be uninstalled again after compilation is done. > NOTE Even though GraphicsMagick initially started as a fork of ImageMagick (in 2002), trying to build PhotoQt with ImageMagick wont work! OPTIONAL DEPENDENCIES ----------------------- - XCFtools - https://github.com/j-jorge/xcftools - libqpsd - https://github.com/Code-ReaQtor/libqpsd > These dependencies are not needed for compiling PhotoQt. However, if they are installed, you can set PhotoQt (via settings) to make use of them for improved XCF/PSD support. INSTALL --------- 1) cd build/ 2) cmake .. # Note: This installs PhotoQt by default into /usr/local/{bin,share} # To install PhotoQt into another prefix e.g. /usr/{bin,share}, run: cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr .. # PhotoQt makes use of the libraries Exiv2 and GraphicsMagick ("gm"). # You can en-/disable them with the following options: # (if you don't specify anything, it asumes the default values) -DEXIV2=OFF # default: ON -DGM=OFF # default: ON # You can combine them in any way you want. # The following option equates to setting the two above options to OFF -DQTONLY=ON # default: OFF # Note: -DQTONLY overwrites the two individual options above! # If CMake aborts with the error that it can't find Exiv2 and/or GraphicsMagick, # but you're certain that the header files are available, then you can specify # their location via the following environment variables: MAGICK_LOCATION EXIV2_LOCATION # NOTE: IF YOU HAVE PROBLEMS WITH PHOTOQT CRASHING WHEN EXITING (OR NOT EXITING # AT ALL), THEN THIS MIGHT BE CAUSED BY THE SYSTRAY (OBSERVED IN PLASMA 5.2) # To solve this, you can compile PhotoQt without a systray by adding the following # flag to CMake: -DWITH_SYSTRAY=OFF 3) make # This creates an executeable photoqt binary located in the ./build/ folder 4) (as root or sudo) make install # This (i) installs the desktop file to share/applications/ (ii) moves some icons to icons/hicolor/ (iii) moves the binary to bin/ UNINSTALL ----------- If you want to uninstall PhotoQt, simply run "make uninstall" as root. This removes the desktop file (via "xdg-desktop-menu uninstall"), the icons and the binary file. Alternatively you can simply remove all the files manually, that should yield the same result.
