It miserably failed :/

gth-exiv2-utils.cpp: In function 'void write_metadata(const char*, const char*,
GList*)':
gth-exiv2-utils.cpp:620: error: 'class Exiv2::ExifData' has no member named
'eraseThumbnail'

The line in question is:

image1->exifData().eraseThumbnail();

Where image1 is:

Exiv2::Image::AutoPtr image1 = Exiv2::ImageFactory::open (from_file);

I'm going to read the docs on how to patch that -- but I was already thinking
at RMing gthumb from experimental nevertheless... if it's a simple patch, I
might do it and update the package, otherwise I'll ask for its removal.

Kindly,
David
