I see essentially the same behaviour with digikam 2.5.0.

I can use the Image / Geo-location tool to add locations to raw images. Digikam
remembers the locations and the locations appear when I bring up the map on the
right hand side of the main digikam UI.

If I go back to the Image / Geo-location tool, no location is shown - not in
the list of images across the bottom and not in the details tab for the
currently selected image.

It's as if digikam has two different ways of storing location information
internally - call them A and B. The Image / Geo-location tool writes to A but
reads from B and the map on the right hand side of the main digikam UI reads
from A.

This internal disconnect persists if I save a raw image with geo-location
information as JPG or PNG. The map on the right hand side of the main UI shows
the geo-loc information but the Image / Geo-location tool does not. Also
there's also no geoloc information in the EXIF in the JPG or PNG.

I've got XMP sidecar support turned on in the "Write to XMP sidecar for
read-only image only" mode. Geo-location information doesn't appear in the XMP
sidecar. This seems to be different from the original poster's report.

I've tested this with both Canon and Sony raw images (the only ones I can
easily access) and the problem is the same.
