Sorry, I meant ACLs (try "getfacl /home/dave/pics/P1040299.JPG").

I just got home and checked the source code for the error message you gave. 
Any chance you tried doing something like "kphotoalbum --import /home/dave/
pics/P1040299.JPG"?

If so, then the the fix is trivial:
"kphotoalbum --import importfile.kim" is for import files only. If you simply 
want kphotoalbum to search for new images, start kphotoalbum and select 
"Rescan for images and videos" from the maintenance menu.

If you want kphotoalbum to always search for new images on startup, you can 
also check "Search for new images and videos on startup" in the settings.

HTH,
