I selected a set of images in kimdaba
I then ran the CD Archiving plugin.
It said that there was about 470MB of images. I clicked to continue
It took a long time to generate the thumbnails ...
When it got into k3b, it said there was 4 GB of images ... it had included all of the images (the whole directory)
It should have only had those items I had selected.
All of my images are in the same folder.

It is a dupe of bug 89394 (see this part of the patch)

Basically, in digikam, you have a list of albums, and when you want to archive an album on the CD, the contents of the folder are copied recursively.
But in KimDaBa, you can have a picture in your top directory, and if you select that one, your whole collection of pictures will be copied.

See this part of the patch
+// TODO : [...] Desactiving folder recursion for now.
#if 0

Maybe we can have a kipi feature like CopyFolderRecursively to handle this well in each application.
