Not important at all, just curious:<br>
- The digikam4 and digikam5 sql databases are identical. Still,
what is the reason for which digikam names a new database
"digikam4.db" and not "digikam5.db"?<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Still the same. No changes in sqlite DB schema.

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Actually
never mind about the standard location. I did not notice
that all files except digikamrc (e.g. digikam_tagsmanagerrc)
were not modified in a long time and thus probably no longer
used in digikam5. For a single file there is no reason for a
~/.config/digikam directory.

When trying to setup digikam5 for production I looked
at config and database location. Database location is
covered by digikam's manpage/help message, but not the
configuration. I remember it was possible to set it in
an earlier version, possibly by "--config
<path>". From a look at the parser in the code
this does not seem to be supported anymore. Could this
be reintroduced?<br>
Is there a reason config files are by standard in
~/.config/ and not in ~/.config/digikam/? The latter
would be much more neat.<br>
And in general the help message/manpage is very
minimal. As there is no recent documentation for
digikam, some information like standard configuration
location should be given in the manpage or help
message. If you can point me to the relevant code
sections I could try to come up with something.<br>
On a side note: Digikam5 still creates an sqlite
database called "digikam4.db". Is this because the
schema is version 4 or was it just forgotten to be
updated to "digikam5.db"?<br>
