[Pkg-phototools-devel] Bug#552102: exif - remove-thumbnail and set-value does not work together

[Bastian Blank]

Package: exif
Version: 0.6.17-1
Severity: normal

For some reason it is impossible to use --set-value together with
--remove-thumbnail. The tag is not changed in the output file.

| $ exif --ifd=0 --tag=0x013b --set-value="Test" test.jpg -o test1.jpg
| Wrote file 'test1.jpg'.
| $ exif --ifd=0 --tag=0x013b --set-value="Test" --remove-thumbnail test.jpg -o test2.jpg
| Wrote file 'test2.jpg'.
| $ exif --tag=0x013b test.jpg 
| EXIF entry 'Artist' (0x13b, 'Artist') exists in IFD '0':
| Tag: 0x13b ('Artist')
|   Format: 2 ('Ascii')
|   Components: 1
|   Size: 1
|   Value: 
| $ exif --tag=0x013b test1.jpg 
| EXIF entry 'Artist' (0x13b, 'Artist') exists in IFD '0':
| Tag: 0x13b ('Artist')

| $ exif --tag=0x013b test2.jpg
