            Bug ID: 343053
           Summary: File's timestamp of imported pictures not preserved
           Product: digikam
           Version: 4.6.0
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Import
          Assignee: digikam-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: nicofo at tuxfamily.org

When I import files from SD card or directly from camera, I expect that the
file's timestamp of the imported files is the same as the one of the files on
the camera.
It is not the case: the file's timestamp is the present time.

Reproducible: Always




Note: the behavior can be modified using Settings > Metadata > Uncheck 'Update
file timestamp when files are modified'. But:
1) importation of file is not a file modification. I expect that this setting
only affects pictures that are *modified* in digikam (like rotation, etc.)
2) see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=329608#c14 : Gilles Caulier seems
to agree with me ("as import or export file always preserve file timestamps")
