Created attachment 107895 [details] attachment-11323-0.html Hi Giles, I'll need some more time to do a re-compile for debug. While I have some IT background, I'm new enough to Linux that I'll have to do some learning. But, the good news is that while ver 5.6 has the same issues (I installed it first), 5.7 fixes it. So what ever changed between 5.6 and 5.7 did it. I can run 5.7 directly by clicking on the appimage file in downloads, but how do I "install" it so the launcher sees it? Currently, it still calls 5.6 The instructions I found *here <http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2017/06/digikam-5-6-0-released-how-to-install-it-in-ubuntu/>* say "The first launch will ask you if to install a shortcut for the AppImage.", but that was not the case for me, at least for the 5.7 image I downloaded via the link you provided. Let me know if a debug dump is still needed given that 5.7 worked. Thanks for the assist!

The appimage desktop integration was disabled in 5.7.0 as AppImage SDK crash at startup with it. Just create a icon on your desktop pointing to the appimage. That all. It 5.7.0 fix the problem, no need more investigation as a backtrace. Gilles Caulier
