Description Volker Kuhlmann 2005-09-04 10:03:14 UTC 
digikam correctly creates the directory structure for burning to CD, then 
calls k3b. k3b says "can't open folder" and then behaves as if it never heard 
of digikam. digikam outputs in its log window "k3b is done; removing temp 
folder" before k3b even displayed its splash window - this will be the 
problem. For some reason digikam seems to think k3b has already terminated.

skript to solve the problem

You need to call k3b with the --nofork option. Otherwise the system call from digikam will return immediately after starting k3b, and that is the reason, while the exported files get already whiped out before k3b can initialize itself. The attached shell skript "k3b-nofork" can be registered as burning application in digikam it does just this.
