SUMMARY After applying all the updates suggested by Discover (as of 2023-04-22), Digikam is upgraded to version 8.0 but does not start anymore. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Apply all the updates suggested by Discover 2. Try launching Digikam OBSERVED RESULT Digikam does not start. When launching it in the console, the following error message is shown: ``` digikam: error while loading shared libraries: libKF5AkonadiContact.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory ``` EXPECTED RESULT Digikam starting normally. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: KDE neon 5.27 KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.105.0 Qt Version: 5.15.9 Kernel Version: 5.19.0-40-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I have supposed that this is a packaging-related problem, which is why I reported it on KDE neon.
Yes, that's a neon package problem. digiKam is compiled with Akonadi address book support for create new tags. The Akonadi library is not present in your system. It should install automatically as a dependency. Try installing the package manually. Maik
Which package(s) should I install exactly? The following are already installed on my system: - akonadi-contacts-data - libkf5akonadi-data - libkf5akonadicontact5:amd64 - libkf5akonadicore5:amd64 - libkf5akonadiprivate5:amd64 - libkf5akonadiwidgets5:amd64
Now fixed in user. Please update by your preferred method.
