[intrepdi] digikam is running 100% cpu at start

[Schmirrwurst]

Binary package hint: digikam

When starting digikam, it is staying on scan albums for hours, taking 100% of cpu...
I haven't found something interesting by starting it from the command line :
digikam(9563): Root Album Path: ""
digikam(9563): Database Path: "/home/ttt/Images"
digikam(9563): SchemaUpdater update
digikam(9563): Have a database structure version "5"
digikam(9563): makeUpdates 5 to 5
digikam(9563): listFromType
digikam(9563): got listFromType
digikam(9563): Creating new Location "/" uuid "volumeid:?path="
digikam(9563): location for "/" is available true

I have tried digikam on Intrepid with 2 gigabytes of random images in my Pictures folder, but it only uses about 50% of the CPU for under 30 seconds. How can I reproduce the bug?

Is any other disk IO occurring at the same time? Perhaps backup software, anti virus scanning or some desktop search tool indexing files? Is the hard disk functioning well? If you look in /var/log/messages are there messages complaining about bad blocks?

No, I haven't anything else running at the same time. There are no input in
/var/log/messages
I've tried to delete the db... and re-run digikam, with the same effect...

I've also tried to delete configuration file, with the same effect.....

deleting the complete .kde configuration directory solved the problem...
