Version: 0.10-svn (using KDE 4.0.98) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages Compiler: gcc OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.24-17-generic The timeline view is structured in sections according to the albums containing images which match the selected time range. In many situations (but not always), the timeline view includes an extra section entitled "My Albums/", whereas the regular sections have names like "My Albums/Name of the album". In this extra section, thumbnails are not visible, whereas thumbnails work fine in the regular albums. Instead of the thumbnails, the default jpg/raw icon is displayed, or blank screen, or both (see screenshot). The extra sections seem to be redundant, i.e. include only pictures which are displayed in the regular albums anyhow. I encountered this bug in the year and month view regularly, but have not been able to reproduce it in the day view. Moreover, the week view seems to be broken, i.e. the histogram widget does not show any pictures although it does so in the other views.

I don't think this has something to do with the time line at all, I can also see this when moving a folder inside of digikam, rebuilding the image fingerprints and searching for similar or duplicate images. Moving folders doesn't work well, it seems to corrupt the database all the time... so this might be the issue...
I can explain this issue. When a file is detected as removed, not all information is directly removed from the database, but the entry is set to the status Removed. Only later (functionality currently seemingly broken) is the entry removed. The idea is that a file may later reappear and then tags are not lost. This change required to add the condition status==Visible to a listing functions, as I became aware only recently. Most places have been fixed, but search has still a problem, and some others. This means what you see here are ghost images that were moved or deleted.
