Re: Debugging digikam

Hi all,

I got it to build, I just installed the git version of digikam from Aur
(arch) and then it worked fine ( the config file was placed at the correct
location and creating the database worked also fine).
I created just a mr (far away for finish and not yet functional, but I like
to track discussions already from begining).
https://invent.kde.org/graphics/digikam/-/merge_requests/202

But if Mario has already code maybe it makes more sense to merge this
instead of my work.

@Mario I am waiting to see your approach of implementing something like
this.

Best regards,
Martin
