Digikam is not listed under any panels in the Privacy tab in the System Preferences/Security&Privacy. I am able to add digikam manually via the “+” button, but only for Full Disk Access and Accessiblity, not for Automation or Photos. I restarted digikam and the computer but so far without any success. Is there another way to grant digikam the necessary rights?
