<div>Not long ago, my Digikam (on Jaunty with KDE and Gnome) worked just fine (great).<br></div><div><br></div><div>Now it has the following problem: whenever I want to save a modified picture, I receive a error message "can't overwrite the original file" (I get it in French, but that's what it says.) This even occurs when I try to "save as" to a different location on a different disc. In this case, Digikam writes a .tmp file with a technical name to the specified location.</div>
<div><br></div><div>This looks like a an access permission issue. So re-checked that I still have all permissions to my photo collection, which is located on a second internal ext3 single volume disc. I do have create and delete permissions according to the properties and I can modify the actual folders and files without problem. But maybe there is a twist to this that I ignore ?</div>
<div><br></div><div>The problem seems to occur since I have installed video software on the computer (only from the repositories). But why ? I have un-installed some of them (those that can be uninstalled without breaking too many dependencies), but the problem persists. Could they be responsible ?</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks for all hints and tricks !</div>
