           Summary: Adding NFS4 network location to local library sees
                    only some dirs
           Product: digikam
           Version: 1.2.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: daniele.calisi at gmail.com


Version:           1.2.0 (using KDE 4.4.2) 
OS:                Linux

I added a NFS4 network location to my local library, digikam starts reading
files, then stops. If run in a console, it says that it cannot read some (most
of) directories. At that time, trying to read those directory with ls shows a
"stale NFS file handle" error.

If I unmount and remount the NFS filesystem, ls can read everything, Dolphin
can browse all directories, even with previews. It seems that some specific
digikam behavior causes NFS to stall.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
This happens to my configuration, I do not know if it is a general issue.
However, I just mount the NFS4 partition, that is a directory full of
subdirectories that are full of images. Everything is fine (Dolphin can browse,
ls can read directories, etc.), but when I try to add that network location to
my local digikam library, after some time it happens what I described above.

Actual Results:  
Only a few of the directories in the NFS filesystem appear in the local
library.

Expected Results:  
Every directory should appear in the local library.
