Missing menus

[Derek Keats]

I renamed ~/.local/share/kxmlgui5 and ~/.local/share/digikam and moved them
outside .local. It does not solve the problem. When I started digikam 5.5
the folders came back, and
  ~/.local/share/kxmlgui5/digikam
has the following files:

kipiplugin_dropboxui.rc
kipiplugin_facebookui.rc
kipiplugin_flickrui.rc
kipiplugin_jalbumui.rc
kipiplugin_printimagesui.rc
kipiplugin_sendimagesui.rc
kipiplugin_wikimediaui.rc

There is no digikam.rc there.

Setting up a Kubuntu VM now to test there.

regards
Derek
