Hi,
I am new to this list and mailman in general, so I may not be
replying properly to the message below from Gilles Caulier. I
retrieved the text below from the archives.
I can confirm that the AppImage does work properly on OpenSUSE
Tumbleweed.
The package that is missing when digikam is installed on OpenSUSE
with GNOME is libQt5Sql5-sqlite.
sudo zypper in libQt5Sql5-sqlite
fixes the problem. I will follow up with OpenSUSE on this.
