Undo stack pop-up in 8.4.0

Ok, I understand now...

Under Linux I can reproduce the problem only with the Qt6, not the
Qt5. So it's a regression somewhere in the code (even if it's the same
more and less compiled with Qt 5 and 6).

About the mix of Qt5 and Qt6 versions on the same computer, I agree,
it's not easy to share the same computer with both versions.
In fact updating the same Qt version works well, but switching to
another one introduces binary incompatibility. There are some files
not really cleaned when uninstalling (at least unde Linux when I
compile and install/uninstall manually).

For Windows I don't know exactly, but the same must be verifiable...
Mixing the Qt versions is problematic, except if you double check the
installation manually and clear all files.

Please report a file in bugzilla about the Qt6 version, we will fix it
when time permits this summer.

Best

> I was running the Qt6 version. When I tried the Qt5 version, all that I got was a white window, with "digiKam" in the upper left corner. When I clicked the "X" in the upper right corner to exit, and attempted to reinstall the Qt6 version, the installer of course wanted to uninstall the Qt5 version. However, the uninstall balked, because it claimed digiKam was still running, although I saw nothing in the Task Manaager. I just clicked on "Continue", the uninstall completed, but when it tried to do the reinstall it again complained about digiKam still running. I had to reboot to get around this. The Qt6 version installs and runs fine (other than the undo stack issue).
