Hi, I am still trying to get digikam working. I re-installed all packages with the new installer. Digikam starts nicely, seems to work fine, shows all kipi-plugins, creates databases ... it just does not show a single photo or album. Rescan doesn't seem to do anything.
Is someone using digikam from 4.3.0 already? What can I do to further debug the system? Should I try an older release branch?
