[Digikam-users] Problems moving photos from EOS 350D

[Andi Clemens]

This has nothing to do with the detected camera, but with the SelectAlbum 
dialg and was fixed in beta6.
Kubuntu unfortunately thinks it is cool to add beta-Software to their stable 
releases (not only digiKam is suffering from that right now). This sheds a 
false light over digiKam and leads to a huge number of duplicate bugreports.
They should have left digikam-beta in some experimental branch and keep 
digiKam-0.10 as the official release, as many other distributions do.

Some rant about this can be found here:

stable-kdevelop/

I really hope Ubuntu will update digiKam, otherwise we receive these reports 
for 6 months now :-(
