[Digikam-users] Digikam not writing metadata (caption/tag/rating)

[Julien T]

I'm using 1.4.0 from ubuntu 10.10 and even, after manually asking
'write metadata to file' (which is already in settings), I do not
manage exiftool to get any of these metadata

$ exiftool file.nef file.jpg |egrep -i '(rating|tag|caption)'
(same with -a -u -g1)

Is there any recommanded ubuntu repository to update to a more recent
stable release, if it is the problem ?
(without risk for the database as it seems files are synchronized)

Thanks.
Cheers

Julien
