duplicates found but not displayed (solved)

[Maik Qualmann]

The non-display of duplicate items may be a bug (race condition), see bug 
report:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=508733

Unfortunately, we are currently unable to reproduce this issue on any 
computer, so it's difficult to fix such issues.

digiKam does not delete duplicate items without asking. Once you click the 
button, the items are now in the digiKam trash of your collection. You can 
also restore them.
