Still no luck... It is a really old IMac (2014) I'll have to upgrade to a
new machine (as soon as I can afford it...)

*Thanks for trying!*

Which MacOS version have you installed exactly?

Comment 5 caulier.gilles 2021-03-24 07:39:32 UTC
Note the backward compatibility with MacOS is 10.13.

Use last digiKam 7.2.0 PKG published yesterday here :

https://download.kde.org/stable/digikam/7.2.0/

Here PKG work as expected on a Macbook pro 2012 running Catalina.

digiKam 7.2.0 official release is published with more than 360 files closed from bugzilla:

https://www.digikam.org/news/2021-03-22-7.2.0_release_announcement/

Can you reproduce the dysfunction with this version ?

Thanks in advance for your feedback

Same result. Thanks for continuing to follow up though....

Like I said, I'll have to work on new hardware... I do love my 15 year old
imac pro... but one of these days, even this retired old cowboy will need a
new horse.
