Gilles,

please don't mix up XMP packet wrappers and XML headers. These are two
different things. Unfortunately, the Exiv2 documentation for the flag
omitPacketWrapper is wrong in this regard ('Omit the XML packet wrapper.').
This flag omits the XMP packet wrapper (there is no XML packet wrapper). 

A XMP packet wrapper is intended for embedding XMP data into binary files and
starts with: 
<?xpacket begin=

For XMP sidecar files you should omit this wrapper and write a XML header
instead - before writing the XMP data:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 

This XML header is missing in the current digiKam release.

Michael
