Not sure if this is specific to digiKam or not, but I trust you'll move to the
appropriate component.

digiKam doesn't seem to be able to write metadata to TIFF files. This is
happening for tags, ratings, etc. For tags and ratings, there is no error
message in the GUI, but the following error message in the console:

digikam(24152)/KEXIV2 KExiv2Iface::KExiv2::KExiv2Priv::saveToFile: File
Extension:  "tif"  is supported for writing mode
digikam(24152)/KEXIV2
KExiv2Iface::KExiv2::KExiv2Priv::printExiv2ExceptionError: Cannot save metadata
using Exiv2   (Error # 23 :  Invalid ifdId 98

When trying to save geolocation information, there is also an error message in
a popup.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a tif file in digikam
2. Change a tag, rating, or location
3. Try to save

I can provide sample files if necessary.
