[Digikam-users] Possible database corruption?

[Robert Markula]

Luka, you wouldn't believe it. I struggled for hours without luck, until
I got the idea that a restart might help. I had already thought about
that, but that felt too simple and I wasn't convinced at all, but
desperation was finally stronger. And... it worked. I feel so stupid.
Smack me, you've got all rights to do so.

Maybe some slave died, as Andi suggested. I don't know. It works. Phew.

Thanks Luka and Andi for your time and for your help!
