            Bug ID: 338230
           Summary: Digikam stops showing download progress after
                    deselecting pictures
           Product: digikam
           Version: 3.5.0
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Import
          Assignee: digikam-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: nn.dm55 at gmail.com

I started to download pictures from my camera to my computer. While Digikam
was busy downloading the pictures, I accidentally clicked in the Import
window and then the statusbar said "No item selected (468 items)"

After that accidental click, there's no way to see the download progress
other than the shimmering digikam logo (on the top-right) which only
indicates that Digikam is still downloading from my camera.

Either Digikam should show download status when nothing is selected and
downloading is in progress or deselecting pictures shouldn't be allowed
while Digikam is downloading.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Plug in a USB camera
2. Start Digikam
3. Turn camera on
4. Import->USB PTP camera
5. Download->Download All
6. Select OK
7. Check Apply to All
8. Click Skip
9. Click in a spot below the green banner that says DCIM
   and outside of any selected pictures (green boxes)
Actual Results:  
Step #5: All the pictures turn green.
Step #8: The digikam.org logo starts shimmering. All of the Selection options
under Edit are grayed out.

Step #9: deselects all pictures even though Download All is still in progress.

Then the status bar at the bottom of the dialog titled Powershot A3300 IS says
"No items selected (468 items)" while digikam.org logo continues to shimmer.

Expected Results:  
Step #5: Pictures turn green
Step #8: Digikam logo shimmers
Step #9: Deselects pictures; status bar still shows download progress
When download finishes, show "No items selected (X items)" message like usual.

Alternatively:
Step #9: Do nothing. This may make people think the software is "broken" if it
doesn't respond even though it may not make sense to allow selection here.
