Bug ID: 424934
Summary: Making an album a part of itself will fill the
hard-drive with copies of itself
Product: digikam
Version: 7.0.0

OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED

SUMMARY
If you make a new database and place that inside a folder (directory) and let's
call that folder: One.
You can then make an album inside that folder. Let's call that album: Two. This
album becomes a folder itself in windows explorer, called: Two.
Inside that album you can import a folder. If that folder, is the parent album
folder, it will make copy after copy after copy of itself, inside itself.
If the folder you wish to import is the folder called: One, it will make copy
after copy of everything inside the datebase folder (including every other
album you have made) until the hard-drive is filled up.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make a new database inside a folder.
2. Make a new album inside another folder, inside the first folder.
3. Import a third folder into the album, but make that folder either the album
folder itself or the database folder.
OBSERVED RESULT
>From inside the program, Nothing.
>From inside Windows Explorer, a lot of files and folders being copied inside
folder after folder.
EXPECTED RESULT
>From inside the program, a warning saying: Are you nuts?
