Ok, let me rephrase:
- I've added some photo in Digikam
- With an external tool (that is picasa), I edit the caption
- This tool only update IPTC, and if there is EXIF caption, EXIF caption is
also updated
- Anyway, these changes are not seen in Digikam because the file caption
(EXIF/IPTC) are not re-read after file update.
- Even file rescan (File/Refresh) doesn't work (so the file still appears
without caption in the main ui while there is IPTC caption within the file)
- Note: when using the Image/Metadata/Change IPTC, the modified caption is well
present, so there is no problem from.

I would suggest to add the Caption extraction procedure in the File/Refresh
processus (so the new caption will be updated). There is no algorithm to
change, I only suggest that : make the File/Refresh update the image captions.
