In digiKam-7.3.0 definitely exists the section for "UpdateSchemaFromV12ToV13" in the dbconfig.xml. How else other users should already be changed to digiKam-7.3.0 without problems? This is a package problem of your distribution. You probably use an old dbconfig.xml. Reports this problem to your distribution or check your installation.

Is there any feedback? As already said, this is not a bug in digiKam-7.3.0 that we could fix.

Comment 3 Paul Richter 2021-09-27 09:49:01 UTC 
I was able to fix it by deleting another locally compiled 7.2 version in /usr/local. The program was loading that conflicting dbconfig.xml instead. Thank you for your information on dbconfig.xml that helped me resolve the problem.

I think would be helpful if the error message contained such information, if it could be determined at the time the error occurs. 

I have resolved this issue as Not A Bug.
