Fantastic! Now it works. Many thanks.
It seems to me that hard-wiring the UUID of the partition inside the
database is an unfriendly thing to do. Will this be fixed when bug 175923
is fixed?
Perhaps if digikam finds that the UUID doesn't match the
database pathname it should emit some sort of error message and offer to
update the UUID to match the pathname.
PS: for the benefit of naive users like me, here are the explicit commands to
modify UUID entry in digikam4.db database:
sqlitebrowser digikam4.db
click on "Browse Data" tab
Table should be "AlbumRoots"
under "identifier" double click on "volumeid:..."
modify the UUID value
click on "apply changes"
File -> save changes
File->exit
In Fedora 10 the correct UUID for the
partition can be obtained by looking in /etc/fstab
