Screenshot of the error message

SUMMARY
Since installing macOS Sequoia 15.1 it is not possible to start digiKam
anymore. From all possible ways to start an application (in the App folder with
Finder, from the Dock or Spotlight) I get the error message: The application
"Finder/Dock/Spotlight" does not have the permission to open "(null)".
I found out after installing macOS Sequoia 15.1 with my previous version of
digiKam (cannot reproduce which one that was), and the error remained after
installing the latest digiKam 8.4.0. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install macOS Sequoia 15.1
2. Run digiKam

OBSERVED RESULT
Error message The application "Finder/Dock/Spotlight" does not have the
permission to open "(null)".

EXPECTED RESULT
digiKam starting up

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
macOS: Sequoia 15.1

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Searching on this specific error message I see that other applications struggle
with this too, e.g. OpenSCAD in
https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/finder-does-not-have-permission-to-open-null.2441374/
The solution there seemed to be releasing a signed version.
