Hello,

I had once built my own backport of 0.9.2 when evaluating image
managment software. It was quite straightforward, I just needed to
rebuild digikam itself and two or three support libraries (libkdcraw,
libkexiv2 afaict.) on etch without any source changes.

I am not going to provide a backport on bpop, though, since I am not
using digikam.
