To put a hot link between what and what ?

Well, with this one:

https://docs.digikam.org/en/setup_application/database_settings.html

... all is explained in detail.

In all cases, the documentation will be improved. Now as the
ReStructuredText is so far more simpler than the DocBook dinosaur, it
will be faster to provide mature documentation.

yes, it can but not natively. In fact, in background, to convert to
another format, Latex is used somewhere...

By default EPUB is proposed de facto, not PDF. It's in my TODO list to
add PDF target in the CI/CD
