I think digikam right now is not ready to be packaged as AppImage.<br>
<br>
The main reason is because it still depends on kdelibs. I think Krita<br>
is pure Qt. AppImage tries to bundle everything in one file:<br>
1. digikam sources<br>
2. boost<br>
3. opencv<br>
4. exiv<br>
5. raw<br>
6 Qt?<br>
<br>
etc..but it will be very bad to include all KDE and it's dependencies.<br>
