--- Comment #10 from Andreas <andr...@1107.se> ---
Hi Gilles - thanks for checking. 

I can't check whether it works in 8.0.0 via the default repositories because
Debian Bookworm is still with package 7.9.0:
https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/digikam

I tried to install 7.9.0 now and I can open the app. Perhaps other packages in
Bookworm were updated and so 7.9.0 works better on Debian Bookworm (from
Digikam about page: "Build date: 13/01/2023 07:08 (target: Debian)")

However: 7.9.0 has serious UI issues. It looks much better and is more stable
than the Flathub version, but displays similar random "twitches" to Flathub
8.0.0 version - see below, triggering these seems random: (Screenshot from
2023-05-04 07-50-10.png) and (Screenshot from 2023-05-04 07-51-15.png)



I installed 8.0.0 via Flathub just now to check it out as well -
https://flathub.org/en-GB/apps/org.kde.digikam

The Flathub version can start on Debian Bookworm but has many UI issues. For
example, in Flathub version when I open Settings and close it  the app will
(often) start to look funny (Screenshot from 2023-05-04 07-38-02.png). 

The contrasts will be a bit off always on buttons (Screenshot from 2023-05-04
07-35-07.png) or the app will go blank (Screenshot from 2023-05-04
07-37-30.png). I can't tie this to any particular thing I'm doing, it could be
browsing photos or changing settings.

Another experience of the Flathub version for me was that it crashed quite
often for no reason. For example on 8.0.0, it crashes when I try to switch the
colour scheme. 

I tried Flathub earlier mostly on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and it had too many issues
to be usable. It seems the issues are the same for the Debian Flathub version. 

Usually the version from Ubuntu repositories didn't have so many issues and
worked well, but now the Debian repository version displays similar issues (but
a bit less) than the Flathub version. 

Thanks!
Andreas
