Description pochini 2011-03-27 23:36:13 UTC 
Version:           1.8.0 (using KDE 4.5.0) 
OS:                Linux

After an image is deleted its thumbnail is still in the thumbnails-digikam.db

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Select a pic.
Hit del key.
Confirm.
Do sqlite3 <path>/thumbnails-digikam.db
SELECT * FROM FilePaths WHERE path LIKE '%/name-of-the-deleted-picture';
You'll see that the thumbnail of the deleted picture is still there.

we'd need some sort of garbage collector for the thumbnails db. As there is no guaranteed 1:1 mapping thumbnails -> original, the thumb is not automatically deleted.
