Hi Robert,
<div>Unfortunately, that didn’t work quite right. Can you please re-run the steps, but this time please type this line by hand</div>
<div>export QT_LOGGING_RULES=“digikam"=true”</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The quotes got translated to something “prettier”, but aren’t recognized by digiKam. You can see it in the line</div>
<div>
<blockquote type="cite">
<div dir="ltr">qt.core.logging: Ignoring malformed logging rule: '“digikam*=true”'</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br>
</div>
It didn’t give me all the debug information I needed.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Also, these lines are concerning:</div>
<div>
<blockquote type="cite">
<div dir="ltr">QObject::connect: Cannot queue arguments of type 'MLPipelinePackageNotify::Ptr'<br>
(Make sure 'MLPipelinePackageNotify::Ptr' is registered using qRegisterMetaType().)<br>
digikam.metaengine: ExifTool is not available to load metadata...</div>
</blockquote>
<br>
</div>
<div>The first two lines don’t appear in my MacOS or Linux runs. Gilles or Maik, do you have any ideas?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The ExifTool line is concerning if you have use ExifTool enabled for reading/writing metadata.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Cheers,</div>
<div>Mike<br>
