No EXIF-Dater after auto rotation

In both the cases I use libexif12 Ver 0.6.13-4. libexif10 Ver 0.6.9-6 is also installed but seems not to be used

I Don't get any stating messages from both the versions.

When loading an image that has to be rotated the old version says:

digikam: Number of EXIF tags in IFD0 section:9
digikam: Wrote Image Orientation: 1
digikam: Wrote file '/media/Photos/2006-04 - Varchaa, Arun, Nina/.digikam-exifrotate-18429'.
digikam: WARNING: Trying to append a Metadata item for an unknown key (no ItemInfo): EXIF comment

The Exif-Data of thai picture ist there after rotation

When I process se same picture with the 8.1 Version it simply says:

digikam: No EXIF information found.

And the resulting picture is missing any Exif-Data.

I have normally fixed this problem in current svn stable implementation (next
0.8.2-beta2 or rc). A file in B.K.O have been openned by Achim Bohnet here :

http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=126326

In current trunk implementation using Exiv2 library, i have never seen this
problem.

I need feedback to kill definitivly this problem...

Hi Gilles,

this problem drives me crazy. My svn stable build does not show the problem.
I've added the patch to 0.8.2-beta2 debs and the problem was still there.
I've created a svn snapshot tarball, build the a new deb with it problem
was there too :(

wild guess: Does an svn build use exgragear/libs/libkexif during build?

Rest of the week I'll be at linuxtag. I'll try to find some time in train
or hotel to look into once more.

Achim
