[Digikam-users] digiKam does not show all thumbnails in one album

Hi

I have come across a strange problem.

I marked and renamed within digiKam in one album all photos (.DNGs) 
which worked, slowly but surely.

Then I noticed there were 583 thumbnails, but 586 entries in that album.
I left digiKam, identified three (not renamed) photos. After copying and 
moving them to another (empty) digiKam album, I renamed them there, and 
opened digiKam again. The new album showed three entries but no 
thumbnails. Exit digiKam again.

Test with showFoto: No problems with the photos, they were there, but 
digiKam obviously didn't like them.
I saved them in showFoto from .DNG to .PNG and digiKam generated 
thumbnails for the .PNGs. Six entries in the album, but only three 
thumbnails.

I left digikam.

Then I went to a backup to exclude any mixup during the renaming process 
in digiKam.
Copied four (the three "bad", and an other "good" .DNGs from there, 
renamed them in Linux and moved the to the new digiKam album.

I opened digiKam again.
Still not there, except thumbnails for the "good" .DNG plus the three 
fresh .PNGs. <F5> didn't help.

System opensuse 12.2, KDE 4.9
digiKam Version 2.9.0 unter KDE 4.9.4 "release 5"

Any idea?
