--- Comment #12 from bogdan at hlevca.com ---
I added another file on my ftp server and removed the old one. The new one has
GPS data and it is shown it the normal album view in digikam, but in the Image
Editor view nothing is shown ( greyed-out, the initial 2 attached print screens
show this issue).

An exiv2 test shows the information below. You can notice that exiv2 has some
problems reading Sony2 directory, which contains a lot of information. I wonder
how can tat be read in other tools than LR. DNG is supposed to be an open
format, but allows (if I remember well) some proprietary data?

I am surprised that you cannot reproduce the Image Editor greyed out issue.
What could be different on my system?
