** Description changed: + [Impact] + + * Can cause loss of user data. + + [Testcase] + + * Create, or find and make a copy of a jpg image with exif metadata. + * Open in gwenview, rotate, and save. + * Close gwenview, and re-open the saved jpg + * Confirm that metadata has not been lost. + + [Where problems could occur] + + While a small patch, and limited to just jpg manipulation, it is + plausible that unintended impact on saved jpgs could occur (quality, + compression etc) so the results of the manipulation should be checked to + make sure that other aspects are as expected. + + Package: gwenview Version: 4:20.12.3-1 As per the debian bug, rotating a jpg and saving the resultant image causes it to lose the exif metadata This is critical, as it causes data loss for users. ** Summary changed: - gwenview: loses image metadata on jpg rotation + [SRU] gwenview: loses image metadata on jpg rotation -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1925022 Title: [SRU] gwenview: loses image metadata on jpg rotation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gwenview/+bug/1925022/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
