Hello Gilles!

I am not importing from the camera, but from a local folder. I always copy CR2 
directly with a card reader, then do the raw conversion in vbox/winXP using 
Canon software (shhh: don't tell anybody :-) . For web use I transform to jgp. 

These jpg's I import into digikam, and that's where the "problem" occured.

I had the same already a time ago, but I was not sure, because I stopped the 
process quickly when I saw how slow it was. Just today I tried again, and as I 
was cooking I let it run those 40 mins...

I use digikam Version 1.9.0, KDE 4.6.2 (4.6.2) "release 3", OpenSuse 11.3. 
Installed from opensuse rpms.
If you need more details, tell me how to obtain them... 

However, it is not important and I don't want to stress you. I can just import 
"normal" and then convert... and if you have the time later (and remember) I 
give you the details you need, ok?

While I'm writing you, I use the ocasion to once again say thanks for that 
great application which I use all the time!

regards

Daniel
