[digiKam-users] I think I have found the synchronization bug/problem

After much going back and forth between my two systems running Digikam
6.0 beta1 I *think* I have found the problem with failing to
synchronize tags.

In Settings->Metadata I have the "Update file timestamp when files are
modified" box ticked.  I rely on this as I use the "--update" option
in rsync when copying files from one system to the other.  Only files
whose timestamp has been updated will get copied across to the other
system.

If I delete a tag that's at the 'bottom' of the hierarchy (i.e. a tag
which has no sub-tags) then the timestamp *is* updated and everything
works as it should.  

However if I delete a tag which has sub-tags then the image files
*don't* get their timestamp updated and thus my rsync doesn't copy
them across to the other system as required.

Where/how do I report this as a bug in 6.0beta1 ?
