Hi, I'm sorry. I didn't follow my thread at the time I posted and almost
forgot about it :-/.
Please see below.

I don't think so, since in the thumbnail window, I have "Show Exif Info" on
the right click.
And errr... I think I got it...

I just had a look in the KPA Feature Status window. I have the exif support,
but miss the SQLite one. At the time I compiled, I guess I thought it was
related to the db backend, this isn't the case, is it ?

After searching, it appears I was missing the "libqt3-mt-sqlite" package
(ubuntu).

As you said, I see a many different cameras in the list. I seems to match
the one in my photos. Though the search doesn't seem to work correctly.
Since I just added the above package, shoud I trigger something? Maybe
Maintenance/"Re-read Metadata from Files" and only update exif infos?

Btw, what is the "import tags" related to, IPTC?

Thanks a lot again.
