Hello
I am migrating to mandriva 2007. The locale are in utf8 and when I run digikam, it proposes me to remove all the album which have french characters (with accent). is there a solution to not loose the album? Thanks "There are 46 albums in the database which do not appear to be on disk. These albums should be removed from the database, however you may lose information because all images associated with these albums will be removed from the database as well. digiKam cannot continue without removing the items from the database because all views depend on the information in the database. Do you want them to be removed from the database?" _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

You could try at the shell prompt: export LANG=fr.UTF-8 digikam Best, Arnd _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

Hello Arnd
And thank you for your answer. My system was configured with UTF-8 cat i18n LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=fr_FR.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES=fr_FR.UTF-8 .. In fact the solution is, for me, to rewrite the name of the files (rewriting the same accent) using konqueror (impossible to do that from the prompt). Now all is OK. Thank you again Michel (now i have a 10Gb photo database with 5000 photos ... the result of one year work ! (photos and scans)) Thanks to the digikam team!

Also, I think than the number of photo managed by digiKam can be the subject of the next Pool on Web site...

I did some tests about that. There are some tools to rename files with the new encoding... With ubuntu, there's a migration tool named utf8-migration-tool (written in python) to do the job : http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/dapper/misc/utf8-migration-tool There's also convmv (written in perl) : http://j3e.de/linux/convmv/man/ Could people using other distributions check if there's some migration tool like that ? > Also, I think than the number of photo managed by digiKam can be the subject > of the next Pool on Web site... There was already a poll for that : http://www.digikam.org/?q=node/60/results :) -- Fabien _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

Fabien UTF-8 migration is very important. We need to write in web site and source code package a notice about to do it. Please let's me hear when you will add explanations on web site, i will include this content on source code tarball.

Can some people using Suse or Fedora Core check what tools are available in their distribution for utf-8 migration ? -- Fabien _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

Fabien,
I have Suse 10.1 and just used convmv yesterday, I'm sure it came preinstalled and it is definitely available in the base distro. Dennis _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |
