--- Comment #6 from IWBR <iwannaber...@gmail.com> --- I wanted to update the issue. Not only the interface is not responsive during the initial scan, but it many cases it also throws constant "no responding" messages under Gnome. It looks like this: https://i.imgur.com/3ELo8Qo.png (source: https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/8zzhw5/disable_gnome_not_responding_box/ ) When the "program is not responding" message is present, most of the operating system freezes, not responding to mouse clicks. If you click on "Wait", it will reappear 5 or 10 seconds later. Basically the computer can't be used during that time, which usually takes a few minutes. This is not something exclusive to Digikam, but for any program whose interface stops responding for a while, where the desktop environment things there is something wrong with it. If I am not mistaken, in Windows 10 something similar happens, where the operating system things the program is not responding and asking to force close it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
