The link you sent works for me too, that its different from the one that digikam is looking for. Its looking for the file digiKam-8.5.0-qt6-x86-64.appimage with a lower case qt where the link you sent me is for digiKam-8.5.0-Qt6-x86-64.appimage with Qt with an uppercase.

Looks like it use "qt6" and not "Qt6" in filename. It's a bug from 8.4.0 fixed in 8.5.0. You need to download file manually...
