I installed digikam on LM 19.2 using the software manager which only has 5.6.0 available and the only option I could find to load 6.3.0 is to use snapd. To avoid conflict with 2 versions at the same time, I first removed 5.6.0 using the software manager.
Then, using the snap-store, installed 6.3.0. But when I launch digiKam, I get the following:</div>
