It seems to me, as if I couldn't describe the problem clearly enough, sorry.
I'll try it again.
I usually work with RAW files (CR2 Canon) and assign all meta data (as comment,
tags and geo-location) to these files; of course, these meta data are written
to the digikam database only, as RAW files can't contain such EXIF, IPTC or XMP
data.
Now I create a JPEG file from my RAW file using digikam image editor. The
digikam meta data of the new JPEG file are complete with comment, tags and
geo-location as applied to the RAW file. But the JPEG file does not have these
information itself (not embedded). So if exporting the file, the information
would be lost. 
Fortunately there is the function "Write meta data to image". 
Using the function copies the comment and the tags to the JPEG file, but NOT
the geo-location information. Though it is also available in the digikam
database.
And this last thing is the issue.
