Hi Maik

I got the problem this morning when I imported ~120 DNG files this morning
Unfortunately, I didn't keep any snapshot

What I did :
import from SD cart
use command "download and delete new"
once download completed, I get the window for deleting the files with 
the correct name, but as part of my process, before completing the 
deletion, I'm running a backup into my NAS.
But at that time, the files downloaded are something like 
"Camera-ORUFNC-7e3985db.digikamtempfile.DSC03513.ARW" (copy/paste from 
the initial mail, opbviously in my case it shoudl refer to DNG file) ,
As this is not what I want to backup, I canceled the deletion window, 
and then the files on my disk are finaly renamed correctly , so I can 
proceed with the backup and once completed, execute the deletion of the 
SD card. Sounds like the renaming process from digikamtempfile to the 
final name was on hold until the "deletion window" is closed

Next import I will keep some snapshot , and I you want I can open a bug 
to store more easely the snapshot

Regards
Frederic
