[UFRaw-Devel] Bug#574869: ufraw: writes invalid TIFF files

[Jos De L. <Jos...@te...>]

Dear all,

First of all, I hope that this is the correct way of replying.
Did not find a "reply" field on 
http://www.mail-archive.com/deb...@li.../msg774019.html 
to reply publicly.
Copied the ufraw list.

I'm the author of jdlraw.sourceforge.net which uses under the hood exiv2 
library and imagemagick.
So I stumbled in this issue as well.

Without knowing the very last details, I suspect there is a problem with 
the tag "Exif.Image.ProcessingSoftware" issued by ufraw in 
ufraw_exiv2.cc, around line 376.
I got exactly this same problem , until I removed that tag.

(gimp complains about with an 'out of order' message, if I remember 
well, and ImageMagick complains about the ImageLength tag).

Could someone confirm. And if one could explain exactly the reason, I 
would be even more grateful. I *think* it is an invalid tag for tiffs.
