Weekly version of Digikam:
Build date: 8/23/2022 3:24 PM (target: RelWithDebInfo)
Revision: 87d0bb259a475adf94fd188cb3685d8efc16f121
Branch: qt5-maintenance
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make a typo in the Digikam Metadata Edit dialog box in the Edit IPTC, Origin
panel in the City field (Smyrnat)
2. Try to correct the typo. (Smyrna)
3. No matter what I have tried for saving the corrected data, the incorrect
data keeps showing back up.
4. I have tried Apply, and OK, and Next followed by Previous followed by
apply. When I hit apply, the incorrect data shows up again.
OBSERVED RESULT
The typo I am trying to correct keeps popping back up.
EXPECTED RESULT
The typo would be corrected in all cases listed in step 4 above.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Note that I am having to do this one image at a time because of a couple of
separate bugs.
Templates are horribly broken as they insist on doing everything and I have
several thousand locations, so templates are useless to me. (There are already
bugs written on this - and they have not been fixed in YEARS).
I tried doing it directly with ExifTool, and while the information appears
in the image, it is refusing to read it into the database and repopulate the
data in the right panel or the metadata dialog box. (I will be writing a bug
on this shortly.).
Reverse Geocoding also does not populate these fields as they should. (there
are already bugs written on this).
