Hello, after updating to version 8.6, Digikam starts with a completely white screen. The program itself runs, as everything that can be accessed with a right-click works. But how can I get rid of the white screen so that I can access the albums again? (Windows 10 OS). Maybe it's a Qt-problem? Greetings

This is an OpenGL problem. I suspect you're using the Qt5 version of digiKam. Use the Qt6 version, as indicated in the filename.

The problem has been resolved, and the response came via private email.
The Qt5 version currently only exists to determine whether regressions in Qt6 are related to the newer Qt6.
