The update will break the gallery; however there is a workaround.
Before
you run the upgrade from http://<host>/gallery2/upgrade, you need to add
the following symlink
ln -s /usr/share/php/Smarty /usr/share/gallery2/lib/smarty
If you have already run the upgrade, you can still just add the symlink and
it will work. I only say to add it before, to minimize the system check
errors.
After the symlink is added, the upgrade system checks detect 3 files
missing (2 documentation files and a jar file, g2_db2.jar) and 2 modified
(Smarty_Compiler.class.php and modifier.debug_print_var.php). These do not
seem to present an issue.
As far as I can tell, everything is working after the symlink was created.
Unless I am missing something, it seems to be impossible
to upload pictures without the remote module. I was only able to
upload my pictures via digikam, after manually installing the remote module.
I also tried using webdav, but nautilus from F10 is not able to access
webdav shares: bugzilla #458892
Therefore, I think that this new release (to cope with legal issues)
has some regressions, which are difficult to deal with.
