Bug Description

In Utopic, some Kipi plugins no longer appear in the Plugins menu in Kipi-aware programs like Gwenview or Digikam. One example is the "Export to Imgur" plugin, one that I frequently use.

After examing a few file locations, I saw that the file kipiplugin_imgurexportui.rc isn't getting copied from /usr/share/kde4/apps/kipi/ to the respective ~/.kde/share/apps/APP/ subdirectory.

For example, here's where the files for the ImageShack plugin appear:

steve@t520:~$ locate kipiplugin_imageshack
/home/steve/.kde/share/apps/digikam/kipiplugin_imageshackexportui.rc
/home/steve/.kde/share/apps/gwenview/kipiplugin_imageshackexportui.rc
/usr/lib/kde4/kipiplugin_imageshackexport.so
/usr/share/kde4/apps/kipi/kipiplugin_imageshackexportui.rc
/usr/share/kde4/services/kipiplugin_imageshackexport.desktop

And the files for the Imgur plugin:

steve@t520:~$ locate kipiplugin_imgur
/usr/lib/kde4/kipiplugin_imgurexport.so
/usr/share/kde4/apps/kipi/kipiplugin_imgurexportui.rc
/usr/share/kde4/services/kipiplugin_imgurexport.desktop

For further testing, I purged kipi-plugins and kipi-plugins from my system and removed the ~/.kde/share/apps/gwenview/kipiplugin*.rc files. Then I re-installled the two packages and ran Gwenview from the command line. I chose the Plugins -> Export menu. The following output appeared on the screen:

gwenview(31953)/KIPI (loading) KIPI::PluginLoader::Info::plugin: Cannot create instance for plugin "MediaWiki Export" ( "kipiplugin_wikimedia" ) with error: "Cannot load library /usr/lib/kde4/kipiplugin_wikimedia.so: (libmediawiki.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)"

gwenview(31953) Gwenview::KIPIInterface::loadOnePlugin: Plugin from library "kipiplugin_videoslideshow" failed to load

Following the hint "libkqoauth.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" I installed the package libkqoauth0. After doing that, "Export to Imgur" appears in the menu. The plugin also works -- I can successfully upload an image. But the plugin also has a button to enter authorization information (presumably from the OAuth library), which may be confusing to some users.

At risk of stating a potential solution, it appears that kipi-plugins in Utopic may need a few more dependencies:

* libmediawiki1
* libkvkontakte1
* libqoauth0
* libqtgstreamer-0.10-0
* libqtgstreamerutils-0.10-0

The version of kipi-plugins and kipi-plugins-common is 4.2.0-0ubuntu1.
