Am I the only one having this problem with Digikam in wayland?

Well, you tried to download appimage from the official site ?
According to the log he does not like something in your video card driver, I have no experience with graphics intel, can’t get a clue what’s going on.
you can also try running it in xwayland using export QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb

thanks for your interest :smiley:
no is from manjaro-repo
but now I’ve found the culprit…(myself)
opening digikam on waylad the download of optional components window goes backside of digikam main window and I could not seeing it, on X11 it comes in front
closing that optional download window digikam works ok, my fault…
