[Digikam-users] Photo captions going in wrong place

[Tim Jenness]

I'm using 1.0.0-beta4 but I've noticed that the 1.0.0 has a very insidious
bug concerning photo captions. I add captions to photos in an album,
sometimes selecting more than one photo and sometimes a single photo.
Everything appears fine but when I go back to the album I find that one
caption has ended up in all the photos (or at least most of them) trashing
all the work from the previous session. This never happened in 0.9.x series
and I never really tried the 0.10.0 release, moving straight to the 1.0
betas so I have no idea whether this is new for the 1.0 series.
I haven't yet been able to work out when it all goes wrong in the database.
What I can say is that the files themselves receive the incorrect caption so
it's not a database corruption after the captions have been written to the
files (I use automatic syncing of metadata to files). I am extra-vigilant at
the moment but I still have not been able to spot a pattern for the
corruption.

Am I alone? Could this be caused by the system wide version being 0.10.0 (I
know that I have segvs in the image editor which I think are related to
system libraries being pulled in instead of the libraries from the private
build).
