Hello,

Thanks to Gilles, I have suceed in Digikam installation with the libkexiv2  
0.18 and exiv2 0.18 support for writing possibility of RAW metadata.

It seems to work fine, except that in the metadata editor Kipi plugins,  
the windows title indicates that I am in "lecture seule" (=read-only) mode  
when I try to edit metadata of Nef files.

I may be miss something, but tag edit directly in Digikam works properly,  
as well the GPS information add (with kipi).

I use libkipi 1.6 and kipiplugins 1.7 with calendar disable (because  
libkcal wasn't in repository and I don't really need it I suppose),  
libkexiv2 0.18 and exiv2 0.18.

If I launch Digikam from a terminal, a warning message appears when I try  
to edit a NEF file with the metadata plugins.

One message indicates me that the date format and the time format are not  
supported  like this for juste one file (in french) :

Warning: Format de date non supporté

With an other picture the message was :

Warning: Exif tag Exif.NikonPreview.JPEGInterchangeFormatLength not encoded
Warning: Exif IFD NikonPreview not encoded

But in the both case, the plugins is in "read only mode" with Raw photos

If I make a mistake, if it's a know issue, or if somebody have any idea  
about this matter, I would be grateful.

And thanks for all the very good work of Digikam developpement

Nicolas
