Message shown:

Corrupt 'gimp-metadata' parasite discovered.
XMP data could not be migrated: Parsing XMP data failed.

This occurs when opening most *.xcf files that were created with version 2.6(whatever version is in the main Ubuntu 14.04 repositories. I'm not sure what this means, but to my thinking metadata is specific information/properties of a photograph/file such as location, date, time, comments. My google searches didn't yield any results so I felt it best to create a report. Hoping I'm not duplicating.

OS: Elementary OS Freya 0.3.0 (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS:GNU/Linux Kernel 4.4)

Have you got a sample file that is small enough - i.e. 3600 kB or less - to attach?

Comment 4 Michael Natterer 2018-01-01 23:00:35 UTC
I assume GIMP master is right and the data is broken. Older versions
were not very sophisticated about metadata handling.

Is there anything to suggest the metadata is correct?
