Version: 0.3.0 (using KDE 4.2.4) OS: Linux Installed from: Mandriva RPMs After scanning an image with digiKam 0.10.0 using the Import->Scan Images option, the resulting JPEG file saved had an EXIF data block that was out of spec: several mandatory EXIF tags were missing. Running the 'exif' program (ver. 0.6.19) in debug mode (-d) gave this log which shows which tags were missing: exif-content: Tag 'XResolution' is mandatory in IFD '0' and has therefore been added. exif-content: Tag 'YResolution' is mandatory in IFD '0' and has therefore been added. exif-content: Tag 'ResolutionUnit' is mandatory in IFD '0' and has therefore been added. exif-content: Tag 'XResolution' is mandatory in IFD '1' and has therefore been added. exif-content: Tag 'YResolution' is mandatory in IFD '1' and has therefore been added. exif-content: Tag 'ResolutionUnit' is mandatory in IFD '1' and has therefore been added. exif-content: Tag 'ExifVersion' is mandatory in IFD 'EXIF' and has therefore been added. exif-content: Tag 'FlashPixVersion' is mandatory in IFD 'EXIF' and has therefore been added. These tags should be written to every EXIF data block to ensure that the resulting file conforms to the EXIF specification. I took a quick peek at the Kipi-plugins source ver. 1.0.0 and saw no sign that the problem has been fixed.
Please use kipi-plugins 1.0.0 ! Also, check Exiv2 library. Last one is 0.19.0 Gilles Caulier
This file is pretty old now, especially about kipi-plugins 0.3.0. kipi-plugins 1.9.0 is out. Update kipi-plugins and Exiv2 to last version and try again. Gilles Caulier
New Kipiplugins 4.11.0 is available : https://www.digikam.org/node/740 Can you reproduce the problem with this release ? Gilles Caulier
Since the tool is moved to digiKam core with 5.0.0 release, this problem is not reproducible. Gilles Caulier
