[digikam] [Bug 315269] New: Tag "_Digikam_root_tag_" is handled strangely (almost like duplicated in hierachy) on importing existing collection

            Bug ID: 315269
           Summary: Tag "_Digikam_root_tag_" is handled strangely (almost
                    like duplicated in hierachy)  on importing existing
                    collection
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Tags
          Assignee: [hidden email]
          Reporter: [hidden email]

As my mysql db was nuked by digikam (was a beta, so no blame here) i was happy
to have most tags in my pictures - chosing this for robustness seems to have
been a good idea.

clearing the database and adding the collections again gives the fail.

I'd conclude that the TagsList format on import is different than the one that
is written on export.

When i move all my 4 1st level childs to the highest visible tag level,
selecting the visible _Digikam_root_tag_ still shows all my 20k pictures, if
sub-tags are selected to be viewn.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create some nice tag hierarchy, with tagged pictures
2. make sure the tags are written to the pictures
3. import to new/fresh digikam 3.0.0 (same in the betas and -rc)
Actual Results:  
All Tags are a child of _Digikam_root_tag_ in the visible tag tree.

As all visible tags in the tree are already a child of _Digikam_root_tag_, this
is wrong and/or at least confusing. Trying to work within the new
_Digikam_root_tag_ fails aswell, as all future tags will be under two levels of
_Digikam_root_tag_
_Digikam_root_tag_,_Digikam_root_tag_,People,friends,tom

Expected Results:  
Digikam should know how itself wrote its internal tags to pictures, so when
imported its not broken.

running in latest version (3.0.0 tarball) - importing older pictures
tag example:
digikam(4699)/KEXIV2 KExiv2Iface::KExiv2::getXmpTagStringSeq: XMP String Seq (
Xmp.digiKam.TagsList ):  ("_Digikam_root_tag_/Places/amerika/usa/ft.
lauderdale")

After moving the main tags one level up and deleting the visible
_digikam_root_tag_ all tags are gone - the moved out tags just aren't assigned
to any pictures - at least explains why all pictures still were under the
wrongly visible _digikam_root_tag

was most likely due to having some _digikam_root_tag_ in the picutures in the
first place... which then caused doublication of this. But under normal
circumstances this should not happen.

Hello,

I think it's related to this bug:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=283323

There's a solution there too, but this not will be totally agree by those who
have a hudge "tag" work before.

Greatings,

Eric

PS : there is an interesting topic on tags management on digikam users list
about tags management - What is being/will be done about the tags management
problem? -> What is being/will be done about the tags management problem?
