Hi Marcel,

thanks for the reply.

I am a little confused (not an uncommon occurrence :) ). The digikam3.db
file I attached to the bug report is the only file
I have for the picture library. I agree its old (probably from Kubuntu Repos
from about 8.10. I had tagged each picture
with a persons name and location etc - for example "Luan" should exist in
many photos. I have opened the digikam3.db file
in kate and even though its a binary I can still read it a bit, but I cannot
find a tag with "Luan" - so I agree there seems to
be no tagging information.

I would load the file into a sqlite client if I was a bit more sql aware.

So my question now is that if the tags are not present in the database file,
and also they were not attached to the image files
themselves, where would the older version of digikam store them ?

Many thanks, Paul.
