Hi Fabien,

Thanks for reporting this. Just a question, did you check 'Copy metadata
(exif & itpc)' option in the execute form? Currently the default is not
to save metadata. I hope it will fix the issue. We are considering to
change the option to be enabled by default.

Thanks,
Nadia

Bug description:
Hi...

This problem appears with Phatch 0.1.6 running on Ubuntu Jaunty. Weird thing is that when I look at the about box, it says 0.1.5 instead, dunno if that's a known behavior.

I have pyexiv2 installed, here's how I proceed:
1: selection of jpg files in Nautilus;
2: right click;
3: select Phatch action list;
4: selection of an action list;
5: check the right checkboxes, saving meta-tags;
6: actions are executed properly, but any metadata is removed...

For example, this actions list which resize pictures to max 600px:
{'actions': [{'fields': {'Constrain Proportions': u'yes',
                         'Height': u'600  px',
                         'Resample Image': u'antialias',
                         'Resolution': u'<dpi>',
                         'Scale down only': u'yes',
                         'Width': u'600  px',
                         '__enabled__': u'true'},
              'label': 'Scale'},
             {'fields': {'As': u'jpg',
                         'Filename': u'<filename>',
                         'In': u'<folder>/<foldername>/',
                         'JPG Quality': u'85',
                         'JPG Size Maximum': u'100  %',
                         'JPG Size Tolerance': u'5  %',
                         'PNG Optimize': u'yes',
                         'Resolution': u'<dpi>',
                         '__enabled__': u'true'},
              'label': 'Save'}],
 'description': u"D\xe9crivez la liste d'actions ici."}

This is too bad since well... Phatch is really a great software. :)
if you have any clue, thanks for any help!
