port digikam @4.0.0 start digikam from shell & set application language & read iPhoto photolibrary

[wolfhard.langer@…]

Hello,

the port digikam has been installed successfully on my iMac (Xcode is installed with the version 5.1.1 (5B1008), running with OS X 10.9.5. The command tools are installed.). When I understand correctly an port can be started in a shell via typing the port name and then press the carriage return button. When doing so in the terminal the error message is "-bash: digikam: command not found". But in the directory /Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/digikam.app/Contents/MacOS the command "./digikam" has function and digikam starts without problems. Is there another possibility to start "digikam"?

The application language is "American English" when digikam has been started and unfortunately it can not be changed in the menue via "Help" and "Switch Application Language", no other language is offered in the pull down menue. Is there another possibility to switch the application language of digikam? Or do I have to install the language "German" at first?

I was very surprised to see that digikam is able to read an photolibrary from iPhoto. I would like to ask you whether the tree below MyAlbums for an photolibrary which can be seen in the file attached is correct? As far as I can see below "Masters" the original photos can be found. It is interesting that below "Thumbnails" it seems that there are two thumbnails for every picture. Therefore I would like to ask you whether something special has to be respected when opening an photolibrary of iPhoto in digikam?

Thank you in advance for checking my inquiries.
