              the first issue correctly :)<br>
              The error you get now I do seldomly get as well, when I
              manage to damage the database (outside of digikam). So as
              you said you are migrating, I would suggest removing
              everything related to the new mysql database and start a
              new clean migration from sqlite.

                            I installed DK from Philip Johnsson's PPA.<br>

                          If I try lo locate libqt5sql5-mysql I get
