Tag or album selection doesn't work for face detection and recognition in Digikam 5.4

[Julien Cubizolles]

If I try to limit the scope of face recognition or face detection either
to a single album or to a single tag ("Unknown" for instance), I get the
message "process finished in 0.000 s" (translated from french) and it
doesn't do anything. If however as choose to scan the "whole
collection", it takes some time and seem to actually do something.

Is it a known bug in this version ?

Problem can be fixed in 5.5.0, or better 5.6.0 pre version available here :

Thanks. I tried 5.6.0 and it's working although I suspect it might also
have been working with 5.4: I hadn't understood that there is a logical
AND between the two choices: you have to make a choice for both the tag and
albums. I think I kept trying to look for "unknowns" in an album devoid
of those.
