Ohh I see - so that's literally directly viewing the metadata in the file, not in the catalog (and the catalog only stores a more generalized subset of meta - not knowing that "tags" came from XP specifically). > Writing an empty tags list now correctly removes XPKeywords.

So no settings changes needed. > My research resulted in a bug report for a Windows photo program, either they > also use Exiv2 in the background, since XPKeywords is also always deleted. > Also the author of ExifTool writes that one should avoid the XP* metadata. Yeah, I mean I wouldn't use it myself. But since one doesn't have control over what others might have done to photos before they were received, I just wanted to make sure it was possible to reliably work with tags, more generally, even if someone else has already used XP tags. Sounds like this fix now does it :) Sorry, quick semi-related question: I'm using v8.0.0 (per our other discussion related to sharing the db between win+linux), but it looks like the weekly builds are for 7.10, not 8.0 (https://files.kde.org/digikam/). Is there somewhere with weekly builds for 8.0, that contain all the latest patches? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
