Package: exif
Version: 0.6.15-1
Severity: normal

        Hello,

It looks like following the upgrade, exif will not extract EXIF tags
anymore by default, but expect the user to specify "--ifd=EXIF". This is
not what it used to do, and it seems quite logical that a program called
"exif" would default to extracting EXIG tags. Yet, it appears that the
default "ifd" is "(null)" which does not work.

I also expect that "exif" is rather focused toward scripting, in which
case breaking the command line syntax compatibility is not really a
great idea.

Regards,
