Bug ID: 458921 Summary: Maintenance > Sync Metadata and Database (Sync Direction: From image metadata to database) does not work for disabled or deleted tags Product: digikam Version: 7.8.0 Platform: Microsoft Windows OS: Microsoft Windows Status: REPORTED Severity: grave Priority: NOR Component: Maintenance-Metadata Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: t.nog...@web.de Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Maintenance > Sync Metadata and Database (Sync Direction: From image metadata to database) does not work for disabled or deleted tags. STEPS TO REPRODUCE Prerequisites - You have two digiKam-SQLite-databases (e.g. "first_database" and "second_database") - Both databases should contain the same album with a photo I'll call "JPG" here - Metadata should be written into JPGs 1. Start digiKam using SQLite-database "first_database". 2. Create a new tag, e.g. "test". Write the tag into a JPG. 3. Start digiKam using the "second_database". 4. Here the new tag does not exist. 5. Tools > Maintenance... > Sync Metadata and Database, Sync Direction: From image to database Click "OK" 6. Now the new tag should appear in the Tags tree. 7. Select the JPG containing the tag "test". Deselect or delete the tag. Wait until/ensure there's no pending metadata synchronization and no active process. 8. You can test the result with a file manager: the JPG should not contain a tag "test" now. 9. Start digiKam using "first_database". Here the tag "test" is present in the tag tree and set for the JPG because that's the information the database provides. 10. Tools > Maintenance... > Sync Metadata and Database, Sync Direction: From image to database Click "OK" OBSERVED RESULT No changes are visible. The tag "test" remains present in the tag tree and set for the JPG. EXPECTED RESULT In case the tag was disabled in second_database: The tag should be disabled for the JPG in first_database, too. In case the tag was deleted in second_database: The tag should be deleted in first_database as well.
