If not, why not remove the plugin?
It's not as if there's no other way to upload to whatever social media one
uses. Export to a directory on HDD and then upload to facebook comes to
mind...
(of course, the same goes for other export plugins running into this kind of
obstacles)
I think your time is much better spent on other work on Digikam, to keep its
quality as high as it is now.
