Comment 1 Maik Qualmann 2019-06-07 15:47:33 UTC

Is a menu bar and thumbnail bar available in the Light Table window?

Try the latest pre-release AppImage of digiKam-6.2.0 from here:

https://files.kde.org/digikam/

Thank you Mike, a menu bar is available in the Light Table window. 
However it's useless since no image appear.

Can I install the AppImage of Digikam-6.2.0 in Ubuntu 19+-04? If yes, 
which appimage should I upload among the many listed?

If there is no thumbnail bar, the bug is clear and already fixed in later versions. The cause is also a patch in Qt. Use this AppImage:

digikam-6.2.0-git-20190606T125502-qtwebkit-x86-64.appimage

But also make a backup of the database, since digiKam-6.x.x makes changes.

Hi Maik, Digikam 6.2.0 works well, thank you. Since it's is an appImage, 
I suppose that I cannot to automatically update it. How does appImage 
version conciliate or integrate with the official Ubuntu version 
5.9.0-1ubuntu3?

Comment 6 caulier.gilles 2019-06-09 02:38:46 UTC

to integrate the AppImage bundle in Linux desktop, you can use the AppImageLauncher application

https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher

Automatic update with AppImage is not implemented.
