--- Comment #8 from Jens <jens-bugs.kde....@spamfreemail.de> --- You answered your own question about the purpose of the UUID in the metadata :-) My intention is to make this a (more) stable interface to make images uniquely identifiably *also across Digikam installations*. I have a mobile Digikam setup on my laptop (Macbook, just a few GB) which I use to tag images when on the road or on vacation. I want to be able to easily sync these to my home Digikam setup (Linux, 300GB of images) and avoid re-importing duplicates, which would be a lot easier if at least Digikam itself would use just one single UUID. If the database UUID is content-based (and not random), as you seem to indicate, then it should not change if the file didn't change. Can we just use this one in the metadata too? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
