If not, why not remove the plugin? 

It's not as if there's no other way to upload to whatever social media one 
uses. Export to a directory on HDD and then upload to facebook comes to 
mind...

(of course, the same goes for other export plugins running into this kind of 
obstacles)

I think your time is much better spent on other work on Digikam, to keep its 
quality as high as it is now.
