Hi Grant, Yes, I just had to do this myself.
There are two packages: jhead and exiftool. The former does jpegs only. I wound up using exiftool, there's a single command to strip all metadata: exiftool -all= *.jpg If I remember right that creates a copy of the file it processes. You can use exiftool to list tags and also remove individual tags. I used it to make sure there were no GPS tags in pictures from my phone.
