Okay ... I see. And problem is solved now.

Looks like it really is a problem of openSUSE packaging:

digikam and kipiplugins are in 2 packages, then there is a third -doc-package
which is described as the "build environment" and therefor seems to be
unnecessary for the "normal" user.
But if you select it for installation, it does remind you of some more libs
that are crucial for digikam and need to be updated. If you do so (even after
deselecting the -doc-package again, everything is fine.

Bottom line:
Even if this is a problem of packaging: why do you accept as developers that
crucial parts of your software are scattered around and dislocated so that the
avarage user is in danger of getting a non-functional program next time he
updates. Wouldn't it be easier and less enerving to create one complete package
with all links and dependencies?

Sorry, just a question.

Thanks for your time!
