            Bug ID: 471390
           Summary: nothing pops up when clicking 'new album' (and should
                    be able to add root album from add-folder)
    Classification: Applications
           Product: digikam
           Version: 8.0.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Other
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Setup-Collections

ui modal to add album fails to pop up

SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. close / reopen digikam
2. import --> add folder
3. select a folder
4. without highlighting an existing album, click `new album`
    * nothing happens
6. now highlight any entry in existing albums, and click `new album` again
   * the modal pops up

OBSERVED RESULT
nothing happens

EXPECTED RESULT
the new-album modal pops up even if nothing is selected

Frankly, as a user per the docs and least surprise, i expect to be able to
create a new "root" album here (eg something at PEER level to
`dummy-album-collection`)

but if that's not possible, and a selection must be made (eg to make a child
album), then I should be notified as such rather than silently doing nothing

this only reproduces on the first opening of the dialog, because "parent" album
selection appears to be preserved if I close/re-open this add-folder dialog.
