Bug ID: 361339 Summary: Album auto-creation creates nameless subalbums and corrupts album hierarchy Product: digikam Version: 5.0.0 Platform: Compiled Sources OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: NOR Component: Import Assignee: digikam-de...@kde.org Reporter: kram...@web.de I'm running 5.0.0beta5 (digikam-git r33955.9e7223e-1 from AUR) on Arch with a MySQL backend. Besides the wanted, correct date-based albums, importing new pictures with "Auto-creation of albums" creates additional, nameless sub albums which seem to contain duplicate pictures. These "ghost albums" seem to have the same effective filesystem path as the correct ones, so deleting them deletes the wanted subalbums and pictures as well. Opening such an album in filemanger reveals empty trailing path components, e.g.: "/mnt/nas/sandl/bilder/Fotos/Maxi-Test/2016///". My albums reside on NFS, but the problem exists for local collections as well. It is also independent of the camera used and of the actual date format (can also be reproduced with the default ISO format). As a workaround: How can I get rid of subalbums in the folder pane without deleting the pictures as well? (Sorry if that's FAQ, I'm quite new to Digikam). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a collection from some existing folder hierarchy (see screenshot 1) 2. Import some new picture which will autocreate new date based subalbums (see screenshot 2) Actual Results: Additional, nameless subalbums will be created (see screenshot 3) Expected Results: Only the wanted, date based subalbums should be created. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
