            Bug ID: 347937
           Summary: Collections added to "Removable Media" don't stay
                    there
           Product: digikam
           Version: 4.10.0
          Platform: MacPorts Packages
                OS: OS X
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: setup
          Assignee: digikam-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: rjvbertin at gmail.com

Adding collections to the "Removable Media" category on OS X works as a
"backdoor" to adding them to the "Local Collections" category.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the Preferences dialog, and go to the Collections panel
2. Use the "Add Collection" button next to the "Removable Media" category to
add a folder to that category
3. Close the Preferences dialog
4. Reopen the Preferences dialog and go back to the Collections panel

Actual Results:  
The collection (album) just added shows up in the "Local Collections" category.

Expected Results:  
The collection (album) just added shows up in the "Removable Collections"
category.

I have not attempted to verify, but I have a hunch the same would happen with
the "Network Shares" category. This is based on my assumption that this bug has
something to do with the way OS X mounts everything under /Volumes as opposed
to how Linux organises things.

I'm labelling this a Major issue as basically it disables all support for
removable media.
