[digiKam-users] ShowFoto 7.2

[khbehrens at MicroBlueSoftware.com]

OK I understand now, I got confused with the availability of the Showfoto 
6.4.0 standalone version in the Synaptic Package Manager because when I 
clicked on the "Visit homepage" button, it took me to the digiKam home 
page with the info on version 7.2.
If you do not produce a standalone Showfoto, where did the one in the 
Ubuntu repository come from? Is it legitimate? I've attached a screen shot 
of the package manager screen.

To be clear, we never produce a AppImage especially for Showfoto. I'm
sure, i write all the build scripts myself which take more than one
year to tune, optimize and finalize.

And i will mre clear now : we will never produce a stand alone version
of Showfoto. Time and resources are limited.

Voilà

> I have limited space on my laptop and I do not need the full digiKam 
suite on it. I just want to install the standalone version of Showfoto to 
use as a lightweight image editor.
> In the Ubuntu 20.04 repositories, the Showfoto version available is 
6.4.0 and I was asking if version 7.2 was available elsewhere. Since 
appimage is OS independent, I posed my question in that context but can 
install a deb with no problems if pointed to the place to download.
> If version 6.4.0 is the most recent standalone version, I will install 
it, but I just wanted to be sure that I installed the latest available.
