--- Comment #17 from Kristian <kde-b...@kristiankoch.com> ---
I think as well that the current non-existing migration process from digikam 4
to 5 is pretty user unfriendly. I wondered also why I had to reconfigure
everything and my templates were gone. After some searching, I found this bug.
At least, my database wasn't fucked up. Since several bad experiences with
digikam breaking its db, I'm very cautious in this regard. 

I would have expected at least a piece of information somewhere that the config
paths changed. It shouldn't be so hard to implement a notice in the first-run
wizard. Alternatively, one could ask the user if he did use digikam 4 before
and if so, display some warnings. You could explain that the config path did
change and that the files can be copied by the user at own risk.
Furthermore, is there any reason why you do not make a copy of digikam4.db and
save it as digikam5.db (although the db didn't change)?
