Comment 6 for bug 508843

In the words of a friend "It's too buggy in the current release, so we can't upgrade to the version that works". This is absolutely ridiculous from an end-user perspective. While I can understand the rule in general, in this case, it's the *exact* opposite of what would be best for users.

Just to be clear: digikam is effectively useless in Karmic because of this.

(and gthumb import also has a bug that prevents import from working at all if there are movie files on the "disk", so these coupled together pretty much make Karmic in general useless for photo management).

Sigh.
