I am surprised to see for how long this problem has been dismissed. More and more users - like myself - store/share their images on network volumes which does not work with sqlite, and while sqlite blames NFS implementation in linux kernel, the end result is that digikam does not function in networked environments.

After years of happily using digikam, I have now been forced to evaluate F-Spot and Picasa to choose a replacement. I need to store the pictures on a server, so they can be accessed from any of a number of desktop machines. I have tried both NFS and CIFS, but digikam hangs upon startup with both of them.
