digiKam 8.8.0 is released

[Jan Wolter]

Hello Gilles and Team,

I tested digiKam 8.8.0 on Linux Mint 22 (Wilma) and got following 
Segmentation Fault (DK 8.7.0 works fine before):

$ ./digiKam-8.8.0-Qt6-x86-64.appimage
-- digiKam Linux AppImage Bundle
-- Use 'help' as CLI argument to know all available options for digiKam application.
-- Notes: to integrate this bundle to your desktop, use AppImageLauncher.
--        to enable all debug messages on the console, use 'export QT_LOGGING_RULES="digikam*=true"'.
--        to extract the bundle contents locally, use option '--appimage-extract' on the command line.

Could you please give me advice how to fix that problem?
