Best hint we have up to now is Marcus Meissners msg from 19 Jan
in this bug report thread:

  ...
  Further investigations shows a conflict between the KDE builtin libltdl
  (in libkdecore) and the external ones and how libgphoto2 uses it.
   ...

Marcus: can you elaborate how you found this out?  Makes for us (or is it
only me?) 'glueless' hopefully easier to compare kubuntu and debian to find
out what needs to be changed in debian.

Not the build-deps of digikam on disk? ;)
