Original description:

[note: the two fields the reporter is referring to, are, in Exiv2 parlance,
Xmp.dc.description and Iptc.Application2.Caption; for whatever reason,
Iptc.Application2.Headline field seems to work fine]

Hello,

I really like the shotwell feature if importing IPTC/XMP tags from photos and
the search functionality which is very fast.

However, I have noticed that if the Caption-Abstract IPTC field is not
imported when accented characters are present (but they are not preventing the
import on the IPTC Headline field)

The shotwell version I have is the 0.11.6.

I've attached two photos (the same one, with two different XMP:Description &
IPTC:Caption-Abstract, modified with XnView)

The "my legend" one (P1020841 Copie.JPG) is seen on shotwell nicely.

The "ma légende" one is seen on shotwell with its image name: P1020841.JPG

I hope this will not be too hard to correct since the problem does not exist
on other fields as already written above.

Have a nice year 2012 ! :)

Romain
