The kfile_raw_patch software adds thumbnail images and exif metadata support for raw images in kdegraphics-3.5.5.
If you're looking to enable thumbnail images and exif meta data for raw images, then you might want to check out the kfile_raw_patch package. This package contains a patch that can be applied to kdegraphics-3.5.5, 3.5.6, and 3.5.7, which will enable these features.
The plugin itself uses code from libkexiv2 and parts from rawimage, making it a comprehensive and powerful tool for working with raw images. However, installation can be somewhat involved. You'll need to navigate to the kdegraphics directory and execute a series of commands, including the patch command, configuring, and building the plugin.
Once installation is complete, you'll need to copy a few files to the appropriate directories, and make sure that the kfile_jpeg.mo file has been translated (if desired). Finally, you'll need to run "kbuildsycoca" and restart konqueror to fully activate the plugin.
Overall, the kfile_raw_patch package is a great tool for anyone working with raw images in the KDE environment. Its combination of powerful features and easy-to-use interface make it a must-have for any serious photographer or graphics professional. The latest release of the package includes a fix for a wrong aperture value, ensuring that your images are always displayed accurately.
It's worth noting that this package requires libexiv2 to function properly, so make sure you have that installed before attempting to use it. If you're using Gentoo, you may find it easier to include the patch in your portage overlay. Regardless of how you choose to install it, however, the kfile_raw_patch package is a great addition to any KDE system.
