            Bug ID: 485873
           Summary: symbolic link are not resolved for a collection
    Classification: Applications
           Product: digikam
           Version: 8.3.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: [email protected]

  Target Milestone: ---

I am just trying Digikam on a very large collections (140k).
The file hierarchy has several symbolic links that point to directories to help
the navigation etc.
Unfortunately, the discovery process follows symlinks (doesn't resolve path),
thus it makes zillion of duplicates.
In my case, I have some top links, so the collection is basically multiplied by
two, three, ...
So Digikam is useless on this case.

Solution:
- implement a fix to the discovery process
- and implement a cleanup process for the database
- or add a configuration option
