[digiKam-users] Remote MySQL Database connectivity

[Maik Qualmann]

There's a problem somewhere in the build system from Gilles computer. Some 
tools were localized, so the output was not parsed correctly anymore. We have 
already identified a problem. But some plugins are not working. Gilles is very 
busy at the moment. I create a current Windows bundle today and upload it for 
testing on my GDrive.
