Much of this discussion has centred around read-only files, but I see this bug when I import pictures from the camera and let digikam auto-rotate them. When the images are brought in to my "Incoming" folder, portrait photos are automagically rotated and lose their EXIF data but landscape photos still have their EXIF data intact.

Unfortunately, I only just discovered it so my last few hundred portrait photos do not have any EXIF data in them, including the date they were taken :( (i.e. this bug means loss of data making it serious not just mildly annoying)

Good to see some progress noted against this bug, but it is unclear as to whether the svn trunk now has this fixed or not.

(digikam and plugins fom Debian etch 0.8.1-3)
