UFraw 0.16 at least transfers some of the EXIF data, but not all of
it. I suppose the most important stuff is there.

Just in the Exif.Image category, I'm missing:

Exif.Image.ImageWidth
Exif.Image.ImageLength
Exif.Image.BitsPerSample
Exif.Image.Compression
Exif.Image.PhotometricInterpretation
Exif.Image.StripOffsets
Exif.Image.SamplesPerPixel
Exif.Image.RowsPerStrip
Exif.Image.StripByteCounts
Exif.Image.XResolution
Exif.Image.YResolution
Exif.Image.PlanarConfiguration
Exif.Image.ResolutionUnit
Exif.Image.SubIFDs
Exif.Image.DNGVersion
Exif.Image.DNGBackwardVersion
Exif.Image.UniqueCameraModel
Exif.Image.ColorMatrix1
Exif.Image.ColorMatrix2
Exif.Image.AnalogBalance
Exif.Image.AsShotNeutral
Exif.Image.BaselineExposure
Exif.Image.BaselineNoise
Exif.Image.BaselineSharpness
Exif.Image.LinearResponseLimit
Exif.Image.DNGPrivateData
Exif.Image.CalibrationIlluminant1
Exif.Image.CalibrationIlluminant2

My guess is a lot of those are irrelevant to JPG files since they're
specific to the DNG format itself. So I guess UFraw 0.16 fixed my
problem. It's unfortunate that I did all my processing with UFraw 0.15
up until now, so I have hundreds (thousands?) of pictures with no EXIF
data that I need to re-process.

As a side note, how come PhotoME for Windows pulls out tons more
information from the EXIF than exiv2 does? I'm talking dozens and
dozens of lines of more... stuff that shows me information from the
very core of my camera itself, like the firmware version number all
the way down to the 4th level (ie. 1.01.00.07)
