Re: brwap

Hi,

bwrap is a tool to chroot an application while it starts. We don't
call it directly in digiKam at all, but. containerized application
with appimage, snap or flatpak use it.

https://manpages.debian.org/buster/bubblewrap/bwrap.1.en.html

Note: I'm sure that your native digiKam is a containerized version. In
Ubuntu, "apt install" switches automatically to the Snap installer
quietly. Firefox for exemple is installed like this with apt. It's not
a native package, it's a containerized version.

Best regards
