[digiKam-users] V6 appimage on Linux 64bit issue with single click

[Stuart Rogers]

 I am not averse to having it as an option for those who like it, but I do think it is not right to have it as a the only setting or come to that set as default to override KDE settings. When you have KDE set the way I have it is completely counter-intuitive. It takes  some remembering especially as I don't use digikam every day and will probably confuse some folks where every other application follows the KDE setting.
