            Bug ID: 346405
           Summary: Problem importing pick labels
           Product: digikam
           Version: 4.4.0
          Platform: Debian stable
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Sidecar Management
          Assignee: digikam-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: b-misc at gmx.ch

I use two computers with digikam installed, one of them as my main machine with
all my photos, and a laptop for on the way. Both of them are configured to read
and write metadata only from/to xmp sidecar files.

After editing metadata of photos in one folder on the laptop I copy the sidecar
files into the same folder on my main machine (images are already there),
replacing the sidecar files there. Then I launch digikam and let it Re-Read
metadata from files (or maintenance -> sync metadata...). Until a few weeks or
months ago this worked as expected, but now ratings are imported but pick
labels are not.

Both digikam installations are configured identically and correctly; Gilles
could already confirm the bug.

To test the issue one can also edit the pick label entry in the xmp file with a
text editor and force digikam to re-read metadata, it doesn't work.

Versions:
digikam 4.4.0
libkexiv2: 2.3.2
Exiv2: 0.24
System is Debian Jessie (becoming stable in a few weeks!)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Edit pick label in xmp sidecar file
2.  Re-Read metadata


Actual Results:  
Modified pick label does not show up correctly in digikam.

Expected Results:  
Modified pick label should show up.
