sorry for reopening this issue.
Just installed digiKam 5.1 from PPA on Ubuntu 16.04. The issue still exists.
Terminal output is:
digikam.general: Detected change, triggering rescan of "/home/eli/Documents/PicturesCollection/blah/"
digikam.database: Starting scan!
digikam.dimg: "/home/eli/Documents/PicturesCollection/blah/IMG_0519.JPG"  : JPEG file identified

This isn't reproducible for me. (Using digiKam 5.1.0 on KUbuntu 16.04)
I recommend you to test again with fresh database and provide updates.

This was an issue earlier but has been fixed after 5.0.0 (since KIO slaves have been dropped).

Comment 5 caulier.gilles 2016-08-21 08:11:34 UTC

Idem here. Problem not reproducible under Linux, MacOS, and Windows with current implementation from git/master (next 5.2.0)

Thanks for the quick reply.

I create a new db (not just new collection) - It works well. It seems that the original issue was fixed.
The issue is that I have an existing db with tags that I don't want to loose.
tried so far:
Maintenance checked everything with the slower option - didn't help.
Database migration - didn't help.

It seems that something is "stuck" in the current db. Any idea how can I save my current tags?

Thanks,
Eli

To backup tags, write digiKam information in image file metadata.

Thanks! That is what I did and saved all my tags.
