Can't create digikam database

From: Darrell Anderson <humanreadable@...>

I'm debugging various digikam issues. I can't create an initial database.

When I am asked to create the database, I accept the defaults:

http://humanreadable.nfshost.com/trinity/build_logs/digikam1.png

Then digikam scrolls through the various messages in the splash image. At the point when the messages say "Scan Albums" the process stops:

http://humanreadable.nfshost.com/trinity/build_logs/digikam2.png

The message is misleading because there are no permission problems.

The error message string appears in albummanager.cpp. Looking at the sources indicates there is some kind upgrade test with the database. I don't understand what could be happening because the database is being created for the first time.

I can create a new database in KDE3 and copy that to my profile and then the Trinity digikam does not complain.

Any ideas what is happening here?
