Hi all!

I noticed that darktable sets up an internal namespace to write
Xmp.lr.hierarchicalSubject metadata. The good news is that exiv2 0.25
will include this, so you won't need to maintain that code on your
side.

I am the guilty party who added this to exiv2 a few months ago. I am
wondering if my patch could be tested on your end before the exiv2
release date so that any bugs could be caught. I am quite an amateur
at this type of thing, but this seemed like an easy patch.

Here it is: http://dev.exiv2.org/issues/784

One issue I am seeing is that on the command line, I have to specify
the type as XmpBag otherwise the property gets created as XmpText. I
am not sure why that is.

Also, I have not been able to find how to specify the type as XmpBag
via gexiv2. If anyone has any insight on that, it would be great!

Discussion on that is here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=712477


Cheers,
Alan
