Hi,
I now tried the 5.4 app image (vs. philip5’s 5.3 packages) and there are some differences.

In the 5.4 appimage, 
- video playback does not work at all, it works fine in 5.3 (without pause/repeat) and OS X (with full controls)
- the icon set (for menus and buttons) seems consistent and complete (vs. missing icons and different sizes in 5.3)
- the fonts look like KDE default fonts (5.3 seems to use far too large fonts for everything)
- Bug #370150 regarding Geolocation seems fixed

So, if I had a wish … I would like a 5.4 Ubuntu package that uses the complete icon set and sane KDE fonts (or some advice on how to set the KDE fonts on my Ubuntu system without having to install the whole of Kubuntu - or just make KDE/Digikam use the Ubuntu font settings). ;-)

Thank you!
