Reloading the "First time wizard"

[Stan Goodman-3]

I installed the program some time ago in anticipation that it would be
useful to me, but without an immediate need, and only explored its GUI a
bit. I didn't cooperate with the "First time wizard", which turns out to
have been a mistake on my part, because now that I want to use the
program, I don't see a way to reload the wizard and configure; digiKam
doesn't think this is my first time.

Surely there must be a way. I hope someone will offer a clue to finding
it.

All those options are in Setup dialog so don't need to reload only First Time
Wizard.

If you want the wizard, remove the digikamrc file from your home folder
(.kde4/share/config/digikamrc).
If you already used digiKam, the database will be untouched. The wizard will
show up and you just setup the right place to the database.

Thanks. Easy to find, although here the file is in ~/.kde rather than
~/.kde4.

Deleting this file brings up a dialog that asks me to specify a folder for
the album; it does not ask for a folder for the database.

The same is true for the Settings > Configure DigiKam notebook.

How can I specify the database folder? If the database folder is already
known to digiKam, how can I get it to share this knowledge with me?
