Bug ID: 444969
Summary: Digikam often freezes when dropping a tag over another
to merge them
Product: digikam
Version: 7.4.0
Platform: Flatpak
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Tags-Keywords
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I have found this problem in the latest 7.4 releases in flatpak (at least I
have been having this problem regularly for the last few weeks).
When I drag one keyword over another to merge them, sometimes digikam freezes
completely, and you need to force close it. It also happens for faces in the
People tab. Nothing responds, no menus or tabs. I don't think it happens all
the time, but maybe 1/4 of the time. The progress bar shows that something
started, but stays at 0%. It stays that way even if you leave it for hours.
The problem is that changes are apparently written in the database, but they
are never written into the metadata, so the pictures and the database are out
of sync.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to the tag panel
2. Drag one tag on top of another. Select "Merge"
OBSERVED RESULT
Digikam often freezes completely
EXPECTED RESULT
The merge completes successfully and metadata is written.
