I have removed digikam4.db, thumbnails-digikam.db and
~/.kde/share/config/digikamrc (since directory ~/.kde4 does not exist),
reinstalled digiKam and got strange result: after setup with First
Assistant and scanning collection digiKam shows in the album 1202
pictures again WITH the test picture there! Therefore some other one
should disappear this time instead. And again:
$ ls -1 album-name | wc -l
1205

I can't think what's wrong.
By the way /home is mounted on a partition with file system EXT4 and
option data=journal.
