[bugzilla at matthias-keller.ch]

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=252406

           Summary: "Import EXIF" does not update cached Metadata
           Product: digikam
           Version: 1.4.0
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Metadata
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: bugzilla at matthias-keller.ch


Version:           1.4.0 (using KDE 4.4.4) 
OS:                Linux

I use the Metadata->Import EXIF functionality regularly to copy the EXIF
information from the first used image back to the generated panorama (which in
my case does not have any EXIF written).
Unfortunately, this action does not update the cached Metadata of the panorama
which still shows up as having no metadata at all. Especially when trying to
add geolocation information later, it will fail for this image because it has
no EXIF at all.
"Import EXIF" therefore should update the stored metadata for the selected
picture after completition.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Take a picture without metadata, import EXIF from another picture

Actual Results:  
The picture itself has the EXIF added, but digiKam still shows no EXIF

Expected Results:  
digiKam should update its metadata cache to reflect the new EXIF

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.34.7-0.3-default
Compiler: gcc
