           Summary: lost pictures after 'download/delete all' when target
                    dir had same file names
           Product: digikam
           Version: 0.9.4
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: jag57 at cam.ac.uk


Version:           0.9.4 (using 3.5.10 "release 23.1" , openSUSE )
Compiler:          Target: x86_64-suse-linux
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.25.16-0.1-default

I lost some pictures while attempting to download them from my camera. These
were the steps I followed:

1. I selected the option 'Download/delete all' from the corresponding menu in
the Camera window.

2. I selected a folder to download the pictures. However, this folder already
contained files with the same names as those in the camera (i.e. same names but
different pictures). A window popped-up warning me of this fact, and offering
alternatives.

3. In the latter window I clicked 'Skip All', as I wanted to select a different
folder to download the pictures whose names were duplicated.

4. Thus, the pictures with the clashing names were not downloaded (and thus the
already existing files were not overwritten), which is what I was expecting -
BUT *all* the pictures in the camera were deleted. Presumably the files in the
camera were reported as downloaded when in fact they were not.
