Bug Description
1) In digikam, select an image and go to Image > Metadata > Edit all metdata > Edit XMP > Credits:Contact.
2) Fill in the fields, such as City. Apply, close the metadata editor, go to Image > Write metadata to image.
Digikam uses exiv2 to write the metadata properties.
3) Check which XMP properties where written using the exiv2 command line tool.
$ exiv2 -px image.jpg | grep City
Xmp.iptc.CiAdrCity XmpText 13 Vancouver
4) Write equivalent property using exiftool: exiftool -ContactCity=
5) Confirm which property was written using exiv2 command line.
$ exiv2 -px image.jpg | grep City
Xmp.iptc.CiAdrCity XmpText 13 Vancouver
Xmp.iptc.
Digikam has written the wrong property. According to the XMP schema, Creator Contact properties are nested under Creator Contact Info, not at the root level themselves. Exiftool has written the correct form of this property. Digikam/exiv2 have not.
