This bug goies along with the report For example, see here, it just extends it to the important use case of manipulating the data from a script (python here.)

You could use a basic code like this (warning: this overwrittes the old image):

from PIL import Image
import glob

stringPath = glob.glob("./my-images/*")

for i in range(len(stringPath)):
    img = Image.open(stringPath[i])
    img.save(stringPath[i])

I manually rotate an image with Shotwell GUI as I need to put the images straight.
I rotate and display images with python

In fact, when saving those ones, the images appear back in the original orientation.

Many of the images that were rotated with Shotwell appear in the wrong direction.

I am wondering if anyone else noticed this, what is the source, and whether it is acknowledge to be a bug still now.

I use ubuntu 22.04

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
