Bug ID: 407049
Summary: Import fails to detect duplicate photos
Product: digikam
Version: 6.1.0
Platform: MS Windows
OS: MS Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Import-MainView
Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: mbri...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
In digiKam 6.1.0 the duplicate detection fails under certain scenarios.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a new album from an existing directory structure of photos.
2. Run thumbnail and fingerprint creation routines.
3. Copy one of the directories from within the album to another location.
4. Run "Import", point it to the copy that was created in step 3 and choose
"Download New", then point it to a test directory within the album directory
tree.
OBSERVED RESULT
Despite the photos already being present in the album, the entire set gets
imported into the test directory within the album. However, any subsequent
attempts to re-import the same set do not add any additional photos (which is
correct). It seems that digiKam only sees duplicates upon the import if it was
the tool that was used to import them initially. This is not the case when
migrating to digiKam from other tools, such as Picasa.
EXPECTED RESULT
It should have detected duplicates, especially since the fingerprint database
has been populated.
