[Bug 280426] New: Exif data from jpegs deleted when using XML sidecars and adding

[manfred]

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=280426

           Summary: Exif data from jpegs deleted when using XML sidecars
                    and adding
           Product: digikam
           Version: 2.0.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Metadata
        AssignedTo: [hidden email]
        ReportedBy: [hidden email]


Version:           2.0.0 (using KDE 4.7.0)
OS:                Linux

Preferences: Using XML sidecars (writing data to picture and XML)
Action: Adding a keyword tag to the picture
Result: Keyword written, all former exif deleted. Only the digikam data is
still there. (Time/Date and Software (Digikam)

Tested without knowing on some hundred files.
It's reproducable. If I switch off XML sidecar use, adding keyword tags is no
problem. Switching on again, it continues deleting the original exif (I wrote
more at the user mailinglist)

RAW files are not subject to this behavior, but I dont use the experimental raw
exif feature.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Change preferences using/not using XML sidecars

Actual Results:  
deletes exif of jpegs

Expected Results:  
keep the original exif data

OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.38-11-generic
Compiler: gcc

forgot to say: I used gwenview and JPhotoTagger to check exif. It's really
deleted from the original files

(I found your question on gckd devel and answered there. Seems to work posting
here gets to the newsgroup, I thoght it would work vice versa as well.
Bugs.kde.org didn.t give me a notification. Please excuse my late answer here)

I can confirm this behaviour. However, I can only reproduce it, if the option
"Read metadata from XMP sidecar files" is activated as well. Furthermore,
digiKam also randomly deletes exif data while importing files.

Not reproducible anymore with current digikam from git. Feel free to reopen if
you still have a problem with coming digikam 2.6 or current git.
