--- Comment #1 from Maik Qualmann <metzping...@gmail.com> ---
This is a misconception that new digiKam users have from time to time. We
should create a FAQ.
This behavior is by design. digiKam does not delete any metadata in the
database by default if they are no longer in the image during a scan. Only
metadata that is new or changed is updated.
Not all users write their metadata in the images, just use it in the database.
A new scan would delete all metadata in the database.
In your case, there is the option to clean up the metadata during a scan in the
digiKam settings under metadata.
However, if a tag is no longer in the images, it will not be deleted from the
tag tree as well, that's definitely the intention. This deletion process must
be done manually in the Tags Manager or in a Tag Sidebar.
