Steps to reproduce: 1. Select item and open advanced rename tool. 2. Change filename to a name for which there is already a file in the same album. This creates a popup titled "Renaming images - digiKam" which goes to 100% and then stays there unless one manually presses "Abort". There is also a notification in the bottom right saying that there is already a file with that name. Best case would be a dialog asking whether I really want to overwrite the file, abort or return to rename tool to change the filename. At the very least make the popup meaningful, e.g. saying "Could not rename ..., as there is already a file with that name.", so essentially the same as the notification on the bottom right. Or just make the popup disappear automatically and hope the user sees the notification in the bottom right corner.
