[Digikam-users] 2 Useraccounts with the same database

[Gilles Caulier]

digiKam for KDE4 will be a solution for this problem. Look this screenshot :

You can separate now roots album path and database file path. Just set a
different place to host DB file for each account and all will be fine.

Warning, digiKam for KDE4 still unstable. Do not use in production...
