Bug Description

There is a packaging issue in the current edgy version of digikam, that makes it impossible to install showfoto due to a conflicting icon file.

Bugs reports concerning this issue are : #68444,#68445 and #60703.

The patch consists in fixing a .install file to remove the conflict.

I attached to the bug a debdiff to apply to version 1:0.8.2-2ubuntu1 to fix the issue.

it would really help a lot of people if this was pushed through a bit, it's a very annoying bug! (and open for about 4 months now)

Please make the changelog more descriptive of the actual problem it's fixing (e.g. "Remove showfoto icons which cause a conflict with the showfoto package" or similar) rather than describing the functional change. Also, please mention this bug report in the changelog. If you make those changes to http://librarian.launchpad.net/5216060/debdiff, you may go ahead and upload to edgy-proposed without further approval.

I've tested this change and it solves the problem. Digikam appears to work just fine.

I did a sru verification for this. Steps:
1. install digikam from edgy
2. install showfoto from edgy -> file overwrite conflict (as expected)

3. install digikam from edgy-proposed
4. install showfoto (no error this time)

Both digikam and showfoto start and seem to work ok.

Marking this as verification-done
