           Summary: Failed to update old Database to new Database format
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian stable
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: epsg gmx net


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    Debian stable Packages
OS:                Linux

LAST ACTION/CHANGE: I set the root of pictures to a CIFS share which is mounted in fstab as :
//Bubblenet/Fotos /mnt/Fotos cifs auto,credentials=/root/.credentials,iocharset=utf8,uid=1000,gid=1000,user 0 0

BUG: starting digiKam I get the error msg:
Failed to update old Database to new Database format
Then I can click OK and then nothing happens. I cant change the root of the pictures anymore, which might cause the problem. 

RESOLVING ATTEMPTS (unsuccessful): 
- Removing the mounted share (to provoke defaulting to home-dir or similar)
- Uninstalling with Kpackage (inclunding removing config-files) and then reinstalling!

It basically is a dead-lock situation.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR: Give user option to set the root back to the default.
