Summary: Sidecar file is not written when image is symlink to
write-protected directory
Product: digikam
Version: 5.0.0
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Metadata-Sidecar
Assignee:

Sidecar file management fails for images that are actually symlinks to
write-protected files in write-protected folders. This used to work in digikam
4.x.
Note that the sidecar file is correctly written next to the symlink if the
folder containing the target of the symlink is writeable. This is strange, as
nothing is supposed to be written to that folder anyway.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
- Configure metadata settings:
-- Check "Read from sidecar files"
-- Check "Write to sidecar files"
-- Select "Write to XMP sidecar only"
- Start with a raw image "test.CR2" in an empty folder. Then:
$ chmod a-w test.CR2
$ mkdir subdir
$ mv test.CR2 subdir/
$ chmod a-w subdir
$ ln -s subdir/test.CR2 link_to_test.CR2
- Now open the folder containing the symlink in digikam.
- Change metadata of the symlink (not the original file in the subfolder!),
e.g. Rating or Tags.
- Select "Album > Write Metadata to Images"
Actual Results:
Nothing, not even an error message.
Expected Results:
A new sidecar file "link_to_test.CR2.xmp" with the changed metadata is present
