Older versions are broken ( https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=339108 ), and people shouldn't be forced to upgrade these other packages to ~arch just to get a stable digiKam. Emerging digikam-4.6.0 with --nodeps works fine.

The semantic-desktop USE flag depends on baloo, which did not exist in 4.12, so there's no other version to pull in. You can turn that flag off if you don't want to upgrade the rest of KDE.

This still seems to require upgrading media-libs/libkgeomap and media-libs/libkface to ~arch (4.6.0), despite at least libkface-3.5.0 being sufficient. Not reopening myself because I don't really care about upgrading these two.
Those two are pulled in via >=${PV} deps because they are part of the digikam release (same tarball, even) and upstream expects them to be used that way.
