           Summary: digikam does not allow smb:// shared folder as picture
                    collection
           Product: digikam
           Version: 1.1.0
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: chris.reiter at gmx.at


Version:           1.1.0 (using 4.4.00 (KDE 4.4.0), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc

if you want to set up a remote (smb) folder in digikam, it says that the folder
does not exist.
Go to digikam settings/configure digikam... -> collections -> "Collections on
network shares - and choose a folder on a smb server.
When you press ok, you get a "The selected folder does not exist or is not
readable".

Same thing at the first startup of digikam, it somehow looses parts of the URL,
trims e.g. "smb://gandalf/share/folder" to "/share/folder" which is local and
of course cannot be found.
