[Digikam-users] Re: GIMP and metadata

[Gilles Caulier]

Ah... Gimp and metadata.

Why it will be to digiKam to restore metadata that a photo manipulation
software as Gimp delete when file is saved.

Definitively, no... For me it's a shame for a photo manipulation software to
don't take a care about metadata.

Report this urgent problem to Gimp team. The software solution exist, as
Exiv2 shared lib manipulate properly metadata in image.
