   |    I tried with the images from the demo application, and that worked

   |    Would your images happen to have some non us letters in them, and
   |    would you lately have happend to upgrade to a new Linux version,
   |    which now encode file names in UTF?
   |
   | Nope.  I am using a modern distribution (SUSE 9.1), but I don't create
   | any filenames with non-ASCII characters.

   Does it also happen for the demo app?

Yes, it does.  What I did was:

[3(root)|||{!1}<rlk-mobile>/home/rlk/sandbox/kdepim]
# cd /opt/kde3/share/apps/kimdaba/demo/
[3(root)|||{!2}<rlk-mobile>/opt/kde3/share/apps/kimdaba/demo]
# rm -f img00*

and then run the demo.  When I chose Display Images Not On Disk, I was
unable to delete the 9 images found.
