ExifTool is a program and Perl module to read EXIF metadata from a variety of image formats including JPG, TIFF, and NEF. AFAIK, no other program in Gentoo yet supports reading EXIF from NEF (Nikon RAW files), so that is why I was driven to write this ebuild. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:

I think this bug can be closes since Image-ExifTool-3.74.ebuild is in portage
Ooops. That was in my overlaydir. This bug is still valid.
Created attachment 73981 [details] improved ebuild for Image-ExifTool This is a slight improvement over the original ebuild, and provides for the latest version of this tool, and a more maintainable ebuild. I have successfully installed on amd64, and tested against a few Nikon RAW files, and it has worked very well.

Created attachment 80531 [details] Image-ExifTool-6.00.ebuild Sorry for the Dupplicate. I'm attaching the newest available version (6.00)
I also would like to see exiftool in the portage tree (Thanks for this ebuild Colin)
media-libs/exiftool-6.13 (last version upstream) has just been added to the portage tree.
