i think there was a change in handling of directories. Previously, i had
"/mnt/ssd500/Fotos/digicam" as root folder (/mnt/ssd500 is the mount point
of a seperate disk), this didn't work with Dk 7.3.
Now i pointed digikam to the folder, "/home/hph/Fotos/digicam", which is
the same but mounted using the 'bind' option in /etc/fstab and after a
while all images appeared again. Both pathes to the digicam folder are
accessible through command line and file manager.

My guess would be some change in the Qt lib?
