I think you misunderstood me: I have all other optional widgets
installed and they are found. Only for the last compilation I
uninstalled the libkio (and only it) dependency, because I thought I
do not need it (I do not use KDE). However now you told me, that the
feature "open with" is removed when libkio is not found. So now
after reinstallation of libkio and recompilation of digikam the
"open with" feature is back. If "open with" is indeed possible
without libkio, it would be great if it was included also if libkio
is missing.<div><div class="h5"><br>

<br>
That is the reason. I read the diffs since my last pull
and there was something about kio. The following suggests
that kio is only relevant together with KDE, so I removed
it. Apparently it is generally needed for linux desktop
integration (e.g. open with).<br>
PRINT_OPTIONAL_LIBRARY_STATUS("libkio" <a href="https://projects.kde.org/projects/frameworks/kio" target="_blank"></a><a href="https://projects.kde.org/projects/frameworks/kio" target="_blank">"https://projects.kde.org/projects/frameworks/kio"</a>
"(version >= ${KF5_MIN_VERSION})" "digiKam will be
compiled without KDE desktop integration
support." KF5KIO_FOUND)<br>
Maybe that should be adjusted?<br>
I will reinstall and recompile - thanks for your help.

<div>No. This option is just optional if KIO
component from KDE is found. Typically, thsi
option is only valid under Linux, not under OSX
and Windows because KIO is not able to handle
external applications with these OS. We need to
use a native solution instead.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So, the question is : What your environnement
while your recompile digiKam ? At configuration
time, a details panel give a feedback about the
configuration done, especially with desktop
integration.</div>

recently and now cannot find a menu item to
open a file in an external editor anymore. It
used to be possible to right click an image
and select something like open with (I do not
remember the exact name) which opened a list
of image editors to choose from, in which the
image then gets opened. Has this option been
intentionally removed? Integration with other
image editors is key for me. Digikams main
strenth is image handling, as an editor, there
are superior options out there.<br>
