I thought I fixed that in Subsurface-branch of Marble. If you still get
those with the latest Marble, then that is also something we desperately
need to fix before the release.

The plot thickens - I was able to recreate this once... but I have a
.subsurface directory so I guess then the hashes were written. I'll take a
look if maybe the image hashing ends up failing silently if the directory
isn't there or something?
