           Summary: Remaining space incorrectly calculated when using
                    symlinks (import from camera)
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: miko wp pl


Version:           0.9.3beta1 (using KDE KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    Unspecified Linux
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux

My album storage path is /home/user/Pictures/, and I have /home/user/Pictures/Incoming symlinked to /mnt/largestorage. Since version 0.9.3beta1 I cannot import my images from camera to /home/user/Pictures/Incoming because digikam warns me there is not enough room.
And indeed, there is not enough room on the root "/" partition, but there is plenty of room in /mnt/largestorage.
So I would like to be able to switch off the option to check the remaining size, or to have another button or checkbox in error dialog "force to download images" or similar.

Would it be possible to check the remaining space on the drive
onto which new images will be downloaded?
(This would mean to resolve the physical drive from any possible symlink,
right?)

There is another problem: many of the images on the camera card are also on the disk. Let suppose that I have 990 MB of images on my camera card also on my disk, and there is one 1MB new photo on the camera, and I have 2 MB of free space on my partition. And now I want co import all images from the camera (overwriting my 990MB images on disk with the same images from the camera). Digikam would think I need 991 MB of free space, while in fact I need only 1 MB. So to calculate the remaining space properly, the size of images "to be overwritten" should be substracted from the total required space.
