[KPhotoAlbum] What does this message mean?

I found it in the source (in NewImageFinder::loadExtraFile), but I
don't know exactly what it means.

For background, I frequently edit images and name them img_xxxx_c1.jpg
(or _c2, etc).  I want them stacked together, so I have set try to
detect multiple versions of files.

The file version search regexp is:

([a-z]{3}_[0-9]{4}).*\.(jpg|cr2|crw|tif)

and original file replacement text:

\1.cr2;\1.crw;\1.tif;\1.jpg

Is this perchance some kind of load sequence dependency (where kpa
expects to find the original img_7484.jpg first and then
img_7484_c1.jpg), which won't work reliably because readdir() doesn't
guarantee the order in which the files are read.

-------

Original info not found by name for  "/home/rlk/images/7dmk2/dcim/107eos7d/img_7484.jpg" , trying by MD5 sum.
Substitute image  "/home/rlk/images/7dmk2/dcim/107eos7d/img_7484.jpg"  found.
How did that happen? We couldn't find info for the original image /home/rlk/images/7dmk2/dcim/107eos7d/img_7484.jpg; can't copy the original data to /home/rlk/images/7dmk2/dcim/107eos7d/img_7484_c1.jpg
