The person how asked to open a ticket should have mentioned it at the same time... I f you cannot reproduce the issue, then close it.
I cannot reproduce the dysfunction here
(In reply to caulier.gilles from comment #3) > I cannot reproduce the dysfunction here Then I suggest we cancel (close?) this issue. I won't break everything again to reproduce the bug : digikam has been processing my photos for more than 12 hours now, and probably has 12 more hours to go ar least. I won't break it again.
