Due to a problem in the AppImage with the KService menu, we created our own "Open with..." menu function. This parses the *.desktop files and creates the corresponding menu entries. If you want to have the original KDE "Open with..." under KF5/6, you have to compile digiKam with libKio (install the corresponding header files).

I compiled with Kio/KF6, it works.
Thanks for your explanations
