           Summary: Digikams seems to find images that are not in the
                    collection directory
           Product: digikam
           Version: 1.2.0
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: bug-reporting at serenareem.net


Version:           1.2.0 (using KDE 4.4.3) 
OS:                Linux

I have 2 directories ~/pictures and ~/pictures-2. "pictures" is a collection
while "pictures-2" is a simple directory Digikam should not be aware of.
However today it shows files from ~/pictures-2/screen/result directory. I
remember it happened some version ago too, though at the time I thought that it
was my DB corrupt. However this one is ~ 1 month or so (rescanned).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. I opened ~/pictures-2/screen/result directory in Gwenview which had 45
files.
2. Opened Digikam (search tab, I believe)
3. Moved first file from "~/pictures-2/screen/result" to "~/pictures/anime/Card
Captor Sakura" via Gwenview interface (from context menu).
4. Switched to Digikam, selected today.

Actual Results:  
Digikam shows all images the one moved to "~/pictures/anime/Card Captor Sakura"
and those, that remained in "~/pictures-2/screen/result".

Expected Results:  
Digikam should in no way know what is a "~/pictures-2/screen/result".

Then I tried to reproduce it. And moved another file from ~/pictures-2/screen/1
to ~/pictures. Digikam suddenly starts disk thrashing... Eats almost a whole
CPU core. I had to kill it with pkill -SIGKILL digikam. Now I have "-2" folder
in a My Albums/pictures in the Digikam interface... Of course there is no
~/pictures/-2 directory on disk.

I have about 15k files in a collection.
