You probably have a KDE3 version of Digikam, which uses the KDE3 libkipi
and kipi-plugins. But you are right that Gwenview was probably not built
with KDE4 kipi support in Kubuntu 8.10.

Gwenview and libkipi are part of KDE now, so to build it you need to
rebuild the kdegraphics package. You should follow the documentation on
techbase [1] to learn about building KDE modules from source. Keep in
mind you will probably have to build kipi-plugins from source too
(kipi-plugins are in extragear/graphics in the KDE svn repository).
