SUMMARY Digikam flatpak: Please include mysql driver (for using an external mysql db) STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Enable flatpak KDE repo like described at: https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Flatpak 2. Install flatpak digikam package (`flatpak install kdeapps org.kde.digikam`) 3. Start flatpak digikam with `flatpak run org.kde.digikam` 4. Try to use digikam with 'MySQL Server' as DB OBSERVED RESULT 'Error was: Driver not loaded' EXPECTED RESULT Flatpak digikam should include the MySQL Server driver. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 29 Flatpak: 1.2.3
digiKam team do not support Flatpack bundle. We support and maintain already one container for Linux : AppImage, which has already the mysql support. This take a lots of ressource to maintain Windows installer, MacOS package and AppImage. There is no plan to add FlatPack stuff... The digiKam Flakpack bundle is certainly an automated build done by KDE factory. Please report this problem to right section from KDE/Phabricator: https://phabricator.kde.org (search flatpack on top/right side) Gilles Caulier
