I'm moving my setup to QubesOS and they do not offer a template OS
image that offers a newer version of digikam. I could overcome this by using a flatpak, but digikam does not seem to distribute that way ... But the bottom line is: it should be possible.

I found the appimage, which might be an alternative (earlier search for flatpak did not produce a result) - is there a source for an app image? I have the impression that what's found at https://files.kde.org/digikam/ is to cutting edge for me ... Sincerely, Joh On 2020-04-21 08:19, Johannes Graumann wrote:

We support AppImage, not FlatPak. n fact, the KDE build server must produce a flatpak version of digiKam, but it do not work (compilation is broken due to weird dependencies rules in the server). We compile (in fact i compile on my computers) the AppImage bundles. All is done from the scratch and take around 6-7 hours.

https://files.kde.org/digikam/ is to deploy a beta version of bundles
including AppImage with and without debug symbols. It's for testing only, not for production uses. But you are not curious ? take a look in README file for details... Note : 7.0.0 pre version which can be found in this shared directory include more than 650 bug fix compared to last stable 6.4.0 : https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?f1=cf_versionfixedin&limit=0&list_id=1737310&o1=equals&order=bug_id&product=digikam&v1=7.0.0 Gilles Caulier Le mar. 21 avr. 2020 à 16:11, Johannes Graumann <[hidden email]> a écrit : > > I found the appimage, which might be an alternative (earlier search for flatpak did not produce a result) - is there a source for an app image?
