I personally recommend to give a try to Lightzone too.

Previously a commercial software, it is now Open Source/ Free Software  
since 2013. I found it very easier to use than Darktable which is a bit  
complicated for me, not very intuitive (in the same way, Digikam editor  
suffer of the same thing plus the lack of instant preview for many tool  
and local treatment possibilities).
