Hi.

Due to my network becoming unavailable (the typical "transport endpoint is not connected"), my digikam's database became empty (no folders are shown in albums). However, browsing the database I can see that all the folders and pictures are there. Since now digikam will try to rescan everything to check if everything is in place, and that will take a couple of days, is there any way to skip the rescan (by changing some option in digikam4.db file), knowing that no file has changed?

Thanks in advance
