[digiKam-users] 7.5.0 Appimage won't start

[Andrew Goodbody]

The internet suggests that Linux Mint 19 has glibc version 2.27. That 
message suggests that the appimage was built using glibc version 2.29. 
This will prevent the appimage from running on Linux Mint 19.

I may have seen something about updating the platform used to build the 
appimage but I don't remember the details. That update may have led to 
this problem.

Maybe Gilles can comment?
