How to install Mapivi on Ubuntu 17.04
To install Mapivi on Ubuntu 17.04
Mapivi is a photo management tool with focus on JPEG pictures. Mapivi supports adding, editing and searching of IPTC/IIM, EXIF data and JPEG comments. The pictures are managed in place (in your folder structure), so you are able to use other tools like file managers or other viewers together with Mapivi. Mapivi is a stand alone tool, in the sense that there is no need for a web server, online access or a database. This tutorial covers the installation procedure of Mapivi on Ubuntu 17.04.
