That's not possible either, Flatpak uses a sandbox. Packages like Flatpak and Snap, with sandboxing, are unusable for digiKam, a program that requires access outside of its home directory. You can try setting the rights with Flatseal.

Alternatively, use our AppImage.

Thank you for super fast response. I works from appimage and from zypper installation
Tried flatseal without success.
