Description philippe weyland 2017-06-26 19:24:59 UTC 
When I try to "Move to trash" an image for which the file has already gone from disk DK doesn't remove the image from album.
The work around I've found is to recreate that file on disk (whatever the content), and then DK accepts to "Move to trash".
Is there a better mean ?

Press F5 ?

DigiKam monitors his albums with the QFileSystemWatcher. Just tested, an externally deleted image automatically disappears from the album.

As long as I don't press F5, the thumbnail stays visible, but disappears when I press F5. I hadn't seen that. Thank you !
