    Hello Gilles,<br>
    <br>
    you are completely right, now I installed actual dk to /opt/kf5 and
    get the actual splash screen.<br>
    <br>
    But one problem is still present: When I create a panel launcher
    that just calls /bin/digikam, I see no splash screen but instead a
    small window with following text: "Loading tools.5.3.0":<br>

    When digikam has started the menu bar seems to be broken, as there
    are only two entries "Settings" and "Help":<br>

                      <br>
                      the appImage version works as expected, even when
                      I call it from panel launcher. I noticed that this
                      version has more icons (e.g. in the left-hand
                      panel) than my compiled version. And the icons
                      have another style.<br>
                      <br>
                      Hence, there seems to be a problem with my
                      compiled version.<br>
                      I compiled dk v5 some month ago (but never used
                      it). I searched in my backups and found that I
                      compiled dk before today on 26th July where dk was
                      installed to /opt/kf5.<br>
                      <br>
                      Today, I just<br>
                      <ol>
                        <li>updated all git repositories,</li>
                        <li>deleted old build folder,</li>
                        <li>called bootstrap.linux</li>
                        <li>switched to newly generated build folder</li>
                        <li>called make (without errors)</li>
                        <li>called sudo make install</li>
                      </ol>
                      Afterwards dk was installed to / instead of
                      /opt/kf5. Before, I used exactly the same approach
                      to compile dk (e.g. without giving a
                      DIGIKAM_INSTALL_PREFIX).<br>
                      To see the differences compare the following
                      files:<br>
                      <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                        class="m_1185258510106807moz-txt-link-freetext"

                      <br>
                      So, I have two questions:<br>
                      <ol>
                        <li>Why changed the installation place?</li>
                        <li>Could this be a reason for my problems?<br>
                          When I call dk from the new installation
                          place, there are some references to the old
                          installation place:<br>
