[digiKam-users] migrate settings to a new machine

[Ronald Roth]

Good to know now, but unfortunately my old installation was snap and I 
can't change that now.  Noted for future reference.

for the purposes of this discussion, let's pretend that it wasn't a snap 
install.  What would I need to do?  Is it different for an appimage vs. 
a distribution install (my system is kubuntu).
