Hi Marcel,

I have found my tags - very good news. I have inadvertently removed the
digikam4.db file from the directory where the Album is. BTW, the digikam3.db
file was a leftover from way back it seems.

I see that now photos are not appearing yet, but this is due to the album
directory existing on an NFS drive I guess.

So I can see the tags in the DigiKam application - so please close the bug.

Thanks for your help,  Paul.
