My try for olympus raw file (10.36 KB, patch)

Description Ruben Vermeersch 2010-06-19 17:57:14 UTC 
Parsing metadata for these files is currently supported and needs to be added in taglib# to prevent regressions when we switch to it. Part of bug 618683.

Step one is reading up on the RAW format. Try gathering as much information as possible about the file format, as you'll need a good understanding of how the metadata is structured.
Comment 3 k.lichtenwalder 2011-03-06 18:30:31 UTC 
Ok, but I do have some problems with the source structure of Mono applications... If you could point me to the source of Taglib#, I could start to read what is needed in which way...
(as there seems not to be any Taglib#-Package)
Comment 4 Ruben Vermeersch 2011-03-06 18:42:47 UTC 
TagLib# is hosted on github: https://github.com/mono/taglib-sharp
Comment 5 k.lichtenwalder 2011-03-23 16:32:46 UTC 
So, I tried to look into it, and I have the attached patch. Orf file seems to be parsed, the example program ParsePhoto gets the relevant information. Still, I get only metadata information in f-spot, no Image. I see that dcraw is called, and the output would be ok. So, where do I have to go from here?

Re patch: mind you, I'm not sure I really always knew what I was doing ...

created a bug report in taglib sharp pointing to the patch over here
Comment 8 Stephen Shaw 2012-11-17 08:23:04 UTC 
Can you link to the bug for taglib sharp?
Comment 9 Stephen Shaw 2012-11-17 08:23:25 UTC 
Or better yet, create a pull request?
Comment 10 Arun Persaud 2012-11-18 20:14:49 UTC 
Here is the link:
   https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=686532

not sure about the pull request, since I don't know anything about it and wouldn't even know how to test it.
Comment 11 André Klapper 2018-07-01 08:59:27 UTC 
f-spot is not under active development anymore, has not seen code changes for five years, and saw its last tarball release in the year 2010.
Its codebase has been archived: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/f-spot/commits/master

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather transfer the project to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is deprecated) if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again.
