digikam want to reinstall after crash - help

[Frédéric Da Vitoria]

Hello,

You are sure you don't have another tag "Bretagne" at the root level ? 
This has happened to me a few times.

Also, I notice that you wrote "pays"/"bretagne", but that later you 
wrote "Bretagne". I wouldn't be surprised if tags were case-sensitive.
