Documentation for v 6.4.0

[Lawrence Howe]

Hi Gilles, I tried the appimage, but it complained about the glibc version.
So I decided to upgrade my linux mint. Then I found out that I couldn't
just upgrade it, I had to reinstall from scratch to get from LM 19 to 22.
So I did that. LM 22 supports DK 8.2.0, so I'm on that now. Then I
reimported all my images which took all night. Just about now to kick off
the face recognition again.

Thank you for really great software, I definitely wouldn't go through all
that for any old photo program. I'm planning to get all my photos tagged
and with captions and pass along to my kids to keep.
