As I posted earlier my KDE installation is broken so I uninstalled KDE and back to pure Ubuntu. But I miss my KDE apps already, digiKam the most.

And now my working hour is done for today, time to re-installing them but this time around I just want some of KDE application not the whole Desktop Environment.

Re-installing digiKam via Synaptic Package Manager unfortunately also installs many KDE apps I don't need, after googling around I find better alternative and that is via command line.

sudo apt-get --no-install-recommends install digikam

That cut down packages considerably. 

via askubuntu.

 

keyword : install digikam without KDE
