There was no digikam4.db file only a digikam3.db. Im running digikam 0.9.3 and 
digikam 0.10.0 in a mixed KDE3/KDE4 suse 10.3 installation. Can perhaps this 
mix be of importance ?

I went back to ver 0.9.3 again (using my back up) due to this problem and also 
that the previous 0.9.3/kde3 version was so much faster. I'll give it a try 
in a few months again.

However, if it can be of any help I can start digikam 0.10 again and send you 
my digikam3.db file or the digikam3.db file after being updated by digikam 
0.10.
