How to reproduce: Add tag and write metadata to image. View Metadata shows Iptc Keywords are not updated. Other Iptc.Application2 fields are successfully written such as Caption, Program, ProgramVersion etc. Settings > Metadata > Advanced > Tags Write Options: shows Iptc.Application2.Keywords is ticked by default. This is a problem when there are old Keywords saved in images and they are not updated by Digikam as expected.
