[Bug 207157] New: Regression: Can't transfer EXIF creation date to file date

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=207157

           Summary: Regression: Can't transfer EXIF creation date to file
                    date
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: [hidden email]
        ReportedBy: [hidden email]


Version:           1.0.0~beta4 (using KDE 4.3.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

Hello,

digikam has an option to adjust the file date. I have used it to set the file
date to the EXIF date with older versions of digikam and this was really a
great thing to do. This feature alone sets Digikam apart from the rest and
helped me improve my photo collection.

Now, I have imported images and the file date just doesn't get changed at all
anymore. It remains day of import from the camera, while when I try to edit
EXIF properties, I do see it has the date correctly. I think 2 months ago, I
had the same problem.

Can you check if this is a regression of digikam that you can fix?

Thanks,
Kay

Screenshot of the function that fails

Sorry for using German translation, but I hope you recognize it still. What
this is supposed to do is to read EXIF creation date and touch the file date to
this date. It doesn't.

Checking that there actually is EXIF information available

This is the dialog where I could edit the EXIF information. I didn't find a
easier way to display it. The bug is not this dialog! This is only to show you
that there actually is EXIF information in the file.

I just notifced that the EXIF date is also display in the mouseover. The date
that I actually want to change is in the thumbnail, where is says "Geändert:
date" (likely "changed: date" in English.

But I checked with "ls -l" and "ls -l --time=ctime" that the file dates do not
change at all. I was suspecting that Digikam might change ctime of the file and
display mtime. But that's not the case.

Yours,
Kay

Ok. It's not digiKam, but a kipi-plugins.

Dialog is an old version. Please update to last 0.6.0, or use current code from
svn where improvements and fixes have been applied.
