how to enforce digikam no to replicate my photos into its storage directory?

[legolas]

Hi
Thank you for reading my post.
I have about 4 Gb photos which I should manage them in linux (I used LightRoom in windows) In lightroom we can import photos into lightoom echosystem without copying them into another folder.
indeed lightroom accept the current folder as images store directory.

does digikam have this functionalities?

Thanks

Digikam uses one folder to store all images. If you already have all your  
photos in one folder then you can tell digikam to use that folder and it  
won't replicate them to anywhere else.

wrong... you can have as many subfolders as you want

but them any deleted image is deleted completely, and modified images
remove the original one.

probably not a good idea... I always have a directory for unmodified
images and one for digikam modified ones (actually one folder per date)

Multiple root albums are supported into KDE4 version (0.10):
