How to migrate database

[Maik Qualmann]

It's very simple, go to the digiKam settings under collections. Behind the 
corresponding collection is the "Update" tool button (circle-like icon). 
Confirm the corresponding dialogs or set the correct path to the collection. 
The underlying album/folder structure must of course be the same as before. 
Back up the digiKam4.db beforehand - just in case.
