DigiKam losing it's own information ???

[BuckSkin]

Problem FIXED ! ! !   Thanks Everyone !
I finally managed to get Version 5.6.0 downloaded and installed; "Re-Read
Metadata from Images" now works, both for single images via Item >
Re-read..., and for entire folders via Album > Re-read....

With a single click, all of my missing tags and GPS info magically
reappeared.


As for the download process:  It is not obvious, nor is it very well
explained, as to how to go about downloading only the file one wants.
At first, and all previous downloads of digiKam, I clicked the
downward-pointing triangle thingie and got a menu that had, among other
choices, "download"; this option yields a huge zip-file that includes all
available installers for various platforms; however, if one selects only the
download desired from the big thumbnails, right-clicks the thumbnail and
chooses "download" from the menu, then you only get the desired installer
and the delivery is quite a bit smaller.

Thanks for reading.
