Today I noticed that a colleague does not have the problem I have with digikam. 
She works on a machine with a very similar configuration compared to mine, but
with digikam freshly installed. 

In my case the KDE4 packages including digikam have a relatively long update
history. During my last update I changed from a package "kde4-digikam" to a
package "digikam". This package change was a consequence of corresponding
changes in the KDE 4.2 factory repository of Opensuse.  

Therefore, some minutes ago, I checked the digikam behaviour for a new user on
my machine for whom I had to run through a first time configuration of digikam.
Guess what ? No problems with resizing pictures afterwards for this user. 

So I renamed the configuration file ~/.kde4/share/config/digikamrc of my own
account and restarted digikam. This, of course, led to the generation a new
digikamrc file (which was considerably smaller than my old one). After that no
problems anymore !  

Comparing the digikamrc files I noticed a section "[resize Tool Dialog]" in the
old configuration file which is not present in the new digikamrc-file. But
there are also other differences. 

So, the problem is solved and the reason for it resided somewhere in the
history of my digikamrc file. Therefore, I really do not know whether other
users will stumble across a similar problem at all.  

Please, change the bug status to something that is appropriate for this
situation. If you need more information or the contents of the digikamrc files,
please, tell me.
