DigiKam checks at each startup if the database and albums are in sync, 
ie all albums and files have entries in the database and vice versa.
If new files/albums exist on the filesystem, digiKam will add them in 
the database without prompting you for anything.
In the contrary case, it will tell you that there are entries in the 
database that don't exist anymore on the filesystem and that it can't 
continue without deleting the corresponding entries in the database...

There's nothing to solve. It's the correct behavior of digiKam.
You'll get this "scanning message" at each startup.
