[Bug 350280] Re: [jaunty] digikam will not add smb folder

[Håvard Gulldahl]

*blush*

I should've read the help text more thoroughly. It clearly states that
the network folder must be mounted locally before digikam will read it.

(For others stumbling into the same darkness: install 'smbfs' and do
sudo mount.cifs //box/pics /mnt/pics)

So while there is no smb bug in digikam, the source of my confusion
remains (and this could be improved): digikam should not silently strip
the smb:// url, but display a warning like "note that remote urls are
not supported."

So while the original problem is moot, I still feel that this is a bug.

Sorry for the fuzz.

Take care and thanks for a great job.
