digiKam 8.7.0

OK, I installed the latest version of darktable (4.6) that my responsitory had and can invoke darktable as the image editor in digiKam by making the choice in Configure digiKam. I didn't find that the process worked very well or consistently, and will revert to adding to darktable's library when I want to edit some RAW images. I have darktable configured to return the exported images to the same folder in digiKam that they came out of which helps me keep track of my images.

Best Regards,
