Missing menus

[Derek Keats]

Hi Folks,

I ended up going back to Digikam 4 because I have not been able to do any
picture editing for more than a month. But if anyone manages to get an
Appimage or .DEB of Digikam 5.X that works with Unity, how can I find out?
If possible, please let me know.

Thanks
Derek
