Open with -> Other...

Choose or type, 'digiKam'.

Yes, there is no option in the package. Package done right.

As in Windows, as in Linux Desktops - file associations in parts is a mess.

Like VLC and Firefox, LibreOffice, Inkscape - spam a file associations no one
uses in the right state of mind (like open PDF in Inkscape), but sometime they
can be used. And it does not mean user cannot chose custom action.

All DE has "Open With, choose application", that is why that is legitimate
feature to implement.

Ok, I have no choice but to agree and put it to rest as is.

P.S.

## Question
If I get to implement features, such as that to KDE. Does it going to be
accepted upstream in KDE community?

I love KDE, but I have a list of features lacking, and tried couple of times to
get in. But QML + KDE + QT5 + C++ KDE writing standards + C++ itself, was to
this time too hard and too layered for me to penetrate it through successfully
and to write a good code.

If I get to KDE, does my half-quality features get accepted/discussed one and I
get in the process. Or probably features not going to be accepted because
developers have view and KDE philosophy, way?


Thank you.

Regards,
Anton Latukha
