Hi all,<br>
<br>
I'm a newbie on this list.<br>
<br>
I installed a new version of digikam (was 4.1.0, now 5.1.0) on my
OSX OS.<br>
Starting for the first time, a pop-up message came which said
"Scanning collections, please wait ..." and then "Preparing
collection scan ...", where it hangs indefinitely.<br>
<br>
Sometimes it just crashes at start-up.<br>
<br>
Is there a problem with digikam 5.1.0 and OSX 10.11.6?<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
PinguMann<br>
