[Bug 503453] [NEW] Digikam tries to initialize phonon when run from Gnome

[Reuben Firmin]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: digikam

I use Gnome, but I find digikam to be the best photo management
software. When I start digikam, I get a notification popup saying that
Phonon could not be initialized properly. Digikam does not (as far as I
know) perform any sound tasks; even if it does, it should not rely on
the KDE sound layer. Shouldn't there be a generalized (freedesktop.org)
API to the sound layer that both Gnome and KDE can use?
