--- Comment #6 from Marcus <wellendorf at posteo.de> ---
Hello! For some reason I never got any message that I got answers here. Sorry
for never answering you!

I have installed 4.12.0. I have some tags double so I was changing tags like
Albert into Albert. The first tag Albert is under the tag people, the second
under Personen (the german word for people). Actually I am changing from
People/Albert to Personen/Albert. Before I beginn both tags have already
pictures, so I can not move the tag. (Merge similar tags would be a good
function actually)

Some tags have quite a lot of pictures tagged with it. I let the metadata write
in the files and in the side files. Writing in RAW is disabled. 

Before the change of the tag is stored I continue with the next double
exisiting tag, lets say People/Berta to Personen/Berta. And so on. After a
while digikam crashes. Than digikam gets more sensible and crashes earlier. I
think while crashing the tags are not written into the files, but stored into
the database.

That is the same behavior digikam has since some versions. It was getting more
usable with newer version, but crashing during tagging appeared with every
version installed on this (my only) computer.

I have no time to further research this question or install the software for a
backtrace at the moment. Sorry, I only maybe later can come back on this
problem. :-(
