Description tagwerk19 2021-01-04 14:47:01 UTC
SUMMARY:

    Tags are not preserved when an image is edited and saved with Gwenview.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

    Attach a tag to an image file, open with Gwenview, rotate and save

OBSERVED RESULTS

    The saved (overwritten) file does not have the tag

EXPECTED RESULTS

    The xattr tags are saved with the updated file

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

    Neon Testing

    Gwenview : 20.12.1
    Plasma : 5.20.4
    Frameworks : 5.78.0
    Qt : 5.15.2 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

    Gwenview reads the extended attributes (it shows the tags, comments
    and ratings in the information panel), it does not write them back
    to disc when saving the file

    The code ought to be there as if you edit the tags in Gwenview,
    they are written to disc...

    This is another a 'special case' of Bug 116617.
