Description Axel Krebs 2013-05-16 04:28:40 UTC 
If right-clicking on a file in album view, one can delete files usually just by clicking "delete"

In this case, the delete-function does not work anymore.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open album view
2. selects one or more pics
3. try to delete these pics
4. there occurs a long waiting period, but nothing happens
Comment 1 Axel Krebs 2013-05-18 03:08:59 UTC 
observing many times this strange behavior, I must notice, that sometimes deleting pics works just fine. 

It appers like digiKam waits for something, and, if this (unknown) condition ist fulfilled, it just works. 

Maybe there is something blocked? 

Access to KDE processes? 

Hope you'll find this annoying cause.

Observing the same behavior on Ubuntu 13.04 Digikam 3.1.0
During delete of album or file Digikam is blocked for 40sec and 0 % CPU. After this time album or files are deleted.

Not reproducible here. I play everyday with digiKam...

Mageia 3, KDE 4.11

My personel view on this issue: if _two_ people notice there is something potentially going wrong, there must be a real cause.

Therefore, status should be "confirmed" rather then neglecting and saying "unconfirmed". Or?

May I suggest to develop a testing szenario or test procedure. How could this be alike?

Maybe we can exclude some drawbacks and misleading reasons.
