Version: 0.9.1-3 (using KDE KDE 3.5.6) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages OS: Linux When I delete an image in a DigiKam album from inside DigiKam (select+delete key, there does not seem to be an interface), it will query me on the next restart whether to delete the DigiKam database entry for the image. Well, Duh. Of course the database entry should be deleted :). So DigiKam needs to delete images from its database automatically when the images are deleted from inside DigiKam.
Marcel, Can you confirm this problem with current implementation of digiKam ? Gilles
No I cannot confirm. Are you sure you are using version 0.9.1? There is an interface, the delete dialog pops up when you press delete. When the image is deleted, the database entry will be removed from db when the directory is automatically rescanned immediately after the file has been removed. There will be a console message "digikam: Dirty: /some/dir".
>No I cannot confirm. Are you sure you are using version 0.9.1? Yes, just double-checked again. >There is an interface, the delete dialog pops up when you press delete. I got a delete progress bar, but no dialog.
Reproduced with DigiKam 0.9.1 on (K)ubuntu. This concerns the DigiKam Image Editor - it happens when you delete a filee from the Image Editor, not when deleting from the DigiKam main window. It also seems to concern only hard deletes (shift+delete), not "Sending to Trash". The Error Message at next restart reads: "There is an item in the database which does not appear to be on disk or is located in the root album of the path. This file should be removed from the database, however you may lose information. digiKam cannot continue without removing the item from the database because all views depend on the information in the database. Do you want it to be removed from the database?"
Benjamin, I have just tried with 0.9.2 release (last stable) and I cannot reproduce this problem. Can you confirm it ? Gilles Caulier
Gilles, the Problem seems to be fixed in 0.9.2, I could not reproduce it after upgrading. Thanks! Benjamin
Thanks to report... I close this file now... Gilles Caulier
Sry but I can still reproduce the problem with 0.9.3rc1 with openSuse Linux. After "send to trash" there is no confirmation dialog or else. On the next startup a dialog pops up and asks if the database entries should be deleted. Very annoying...
