[digiKam-users] Problem moving images to other albums

[Maik Qualmann]

Can't reproduce the problem, of course sidecars are automatically moved with 
the image. Both sidecar formats are supported when copying / moving, i.e. 
BASENAME.xmp and BASENAME.EXT.xmp. Are you sure you are using digiKam-7.2.0? 
Copy / move support for BASENAME.xmp was only added in this version.  Possibly 
activate debug output by setting the environment variable and posting the 
output in the terminal of the move process.
