Description Geoff King 2008-08-07 03:21:34 UTC

Version:           0.10.0-beta3 (rev.: 843335) (using KDE 4.1.0)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
Compiler:          gcc 
OS:                Linux

I am unable to add, edit or remove iptc and xmp info.  For example if I change a caption in the caption box, the change is made, but when I switch to the Metadata toolbar and look at the IPTC and XMP info it has not changed.  I've double checked the configuration options to make sure it updates metadata.  

I get the following message in the terminal and assume it has something to do with the line "is TIFF based RAW file not yet supported." although this is a JPG file. In this example I tried to add the word "up".

-----------------------
digikam(7790): "/home/gsking/Pictures/2008-05-24/img-000001.JPG"  ==> Comment:  "Adam standing up"
"Adam standing"

/home/gsking/Pictures/2008-05-24/img-000001.JPG ==> Iptc Keywords: Adam
'/home/gsking/Pictures/2008-05-24' is TIFF based RAW file not yet supported. Metadata not saved.
----------------------------------

Also, if I try to do this...
Image > Metadata > Remove XMP..

I get the following message box.
Unable to remove XMP metadata from:  [also the same for IPTC AND EXIF]

Geoff, 

message come from libkexiv2. which Exiv2 version you use ? svn (future 0.18) ?

I have the same problems, using 0.17.91. I did work OK for some days.
If I do inject IPTC data from konsole using exiv2, all works fine. So I suspect it to be a digikam issue, also because I havn't changed exiv2 for a couple of days now.
