digiKam has a new tool to convert RAW camera files to DNG...

Yes! a DNG converter for Linux... For a long time, many people asked me to implement a RAW camera image converter to Digital NeGative (DNG). Why should one support DNG under Linux? To improve interoperability with other photo-management programs such as Adobe tools, and to improve Digital Asset Management (DAM), as Gerhard Kulzer discusses in this nice tutorial and in particular in Part 2. I have already talked about DNG in another ticket.
This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://www.digikam.org/news/2008-09-28_digikam_has_a_new_tool_to_convert_raw_camera_files_to_dng/

Out of curiosity, I tried to export a DNG from several raw files (Nikon, Pentax, Fujifilm) but all failed.
Tried with Digikam 5.9.0, Linux Manjaro.
