           Summary: Add collection with smb://xxx path should give better
                    warning
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: lure at kubuntu.org

OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Network shares can be added as collection to Digikam, but only if the network
share is mounted locally. However, "Add Collection" dialog, uses standard File
selection dialog, which also offers Network selection. It is very natural for
the user to browse their network folder in Network tab, but when such path (for
example: smb://hostname/share) is selected, digikam will give confusing
message: 

"There is already a collection for a network share with the same path."

This is reported also if I do not have any network collection at all!
