digikam want to reinstall after crash - help

[frederic chaume]

All

found the solution, if it can help , here it is:
when you right-click on a tag (in caption/tag , not availble in the tag 
manager) there is an option called "Toggle Auto"  which was set to 
"none", I changed it to "parent"  and then parent tag is now also set 
when you set a children tag
