           Summary: find duplicates should handle raw files more
                    intelligently
           Product: digikam
           Version: 2.0.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Fuzzy Searches
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: s.oosthoek at xs4all.nl


Version:           2.0.0 (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

I was trying out and using (very useful feature!) the find duplicates function,
but in albums where I have lots of .ARW and .JPG files for the same photo (I
shoot RAW+JPG in most cases), Find Duplicates matches all photos.

I'm sure there are cases where matches between the RAW and JPG versions of the
same photo should be found, but I think this should be off by default. I mean
there should be a toggle or switch to let digikam ignore duplicates which have
the same basename, but a different extension (like .ARW and .JPG in my case,
but there are lots of combinations possible regarding RAW file extensions).



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
do "find duplicates" search in albums with RAW+JPG combinations (especially
when having shot with the camera in RAW+JPG mode)

Actual Results:  
all images are found, since every photo has a "duplicate"

Expected Results:  
I'd like to _not_ find the images that are the result of the camera making two
files for one photo.
