Did you have a full UTF8 compatible Linux system, properly configured with
right LOCALE settings ?

The system is Ubuntu Vivid, so I doubt there are may more modern options.
The LOCALE is set for en_US.UTF-8. That includes Ș. I can type Ș anywhere,
including Terminal and Krusader, and it always worked.
I am confused now. Are my settings wrong, or is this a bug? Please let me know
if there is any missing information.

It's clear, it's not a bug. source code use QString container everywhere which
is UF8 based. Database use UTF8 to store string. It's not a digiKam bug sure...

My system is Linux Mageia5. There is nothing special about characters encoding
settings.
