Philippe,

Your interpretation of konqueror behaviour is wrong. Konqueror do not set Exif comments tag, but the JPEG Comment section, witch is outside Exif metadata !

In fact, Konqueror interface is wrong. The comments field must be show outside Exif group in dialog.

I reassign the bug to konqueror

Gilles Caulier

Note : use Image/Metadata/Edit Comments in digiKam to set the comments at the right place in metadata (JPEG section, Exif, IPTC, or Xmp)
