Bug ID: 463180
Summary: Reread Metadata From File doesn't cleanup Tags
Classification: Applications
Product: digikam
Version: 8.0.0
Platform: Other
OS: Other
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Tags-Keywords
Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: metal...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
If I add a tag in digiKam, then revert the file, then Reread Metadata from
File, digiKam still shows the added tag, even though it is no longer present in
the file on disk. Expectation is that this would bring digiKam's database back
in sync with the on-disk data.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1) View a jpeg in digikam
2) Make a backup copy of the file somewhere on disk (i.e. from outside of
digiKam)
3) In digiKam, add a tag, i.e. "Test". Apply, with metadata writing to file
enabled.
4) On disk, replace the file that was tagged by digiKam with the backup (aka
"revert the change from backup")
5) In digiKam, select the file & "Reread Metadata from File"
6) digiKam still shows that the photo has the "Test" tag, even though it does
not. It is shown in the tags panel on the left, as well as in Captions->Tags
panel on the right.
Conclusion: It appears as though "Reread metadata from Files" is not rereading
the tags?
OBSERVED RESULT
digiKam still shows the tag, despite it having been reverted on-disk & then
having done "reread metadata from files"
EXPECTED RESULT
digiKam should no longer show the tag, as it is no longer present int he jpeg
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 7
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Tested in digiKam 8.0.0-beta1
