[Digikam-users] regression in 1.1.0 creating date based albums?

[Simon Oosthoek]

Hi

I just upgraded my machine using the kubuntu karmic backports (ppa), so 
I got digikam 1.1.0 along with it. Before that I used the 1.0.0 version 
that came along with karmic.

I always download my images (from a Sony alpha-500) in RAW+JPG to date 
based folders and it worked just fine, but now I get the less than 
helpful message "failed to create folder". Obviously, since this is an 
upgrade the permissions are fine (I checked), the disk isn't full, etc. 
I can't tell from the message what kind of problem digikam has in 
creating directories, but it does fail to download my images in the way 
that I'm used to (or at all, since I'm not going to do the work of 
moving the images by hand!).

I've also experienced a few crashes already, though I don't know if they 
are in any way related, so I'll just keep an eye on that...

Main question: is this a known problem or should I file a bug (launchpad 
or kde.bugs.org?)

PS, If at all possible, I hope this can be fixed in the repository 
rather than that I'd have to build digikam from sources...
