O.k., I copied the template.xml from the 4.x location to the 5.x location and
it works. digiKam comes up with my old templates.
But:
>For 4.x, file are located to ~/.kde4/share/apps/digikam/
This is not quite right, at least not for Kubuntu. The correct path is
~/.kde/share/apps/digikam
>With 5.x, file must be moved to ~/.local/share/apps/digikam/
This is also not the path under Kubuntu, it's ~/.local/share/digikam/
>So there is no need a save/load methods for templates.
And here I don't agree as a matter of principle. digiKam is a program for
photographers, i.e. "graphic people", and those like to use GUIs and not moving
around files by browser or even terminal (there are exceptions, I know). And
even if they were willing to go through that "ordeal", how can they know where
to find that file? So the absolute minimum IMHO would be a hint, a tipp within
the template manager where to find that file.
