[digiKam-users] Best distro for staying up to date with digikam?

[Gilles Caulier]

Hi,

Don't forget the AppImage bundle for Linux which must work everywhere.

Currently they are compiled under Linux Mageia7, but I plan to move under
Ubuntu 20.04. Rolling release Files are compiled weekly and shared here :

https://files.kde.org/digikam/
