I can't recall if it's the same in shotwell but in f-spot you had to
make a change to the image before the exif data was written. For
example, you could:
turn off write-exif-data to file option
select all images
tag all images with a tag, e.g. temptag
turn on write-exif-data to file option
select all images
remove temptag from all images
at which point the exif data should be written to you images. There will
be a progress indicator to show it working and it may take a long time.

I'm not seeing it, either when looking for activity via strace,
or running exif on a file which I've tagged.
When I rsync to another machine the files aren't showing up as changed ...
How do I confirm the metadata is being written?
Thanks,
Kent

Howdy,
I've got lots of images and tags in Shotwell.
I've recently had a change of heart, wish the metadata was written
to the image files.
Can Shotwell write data to files already imported?
Yes. If you enable the option to write metadata to files, Shotwell will
immediately write metadata to all existing files in your library.
