Package: exiv2 Version: 0.16-4 Severity: normal Hi,
Exif.Photo.UserComment unicode are store a utf-16 (big or little endian according to the exif endianness). [1] But exiv2 don't do any processing and output utf-16 on terminal. Worse when setting UserComment with unicode charset, it write invalid tag with the charset of your terminal.
