Error: No namespace info available for XMP prefix `apple-fi'

While opening images, I occasionally get these errors that must be closed manually. The root cause seems to be this issue: https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/issues/2932 It would be nice to not have a manual error dialog from photini (ie. ignore unknown Exiv namespaces).

Thanks for the report. I've had the same problem (with "apple-fi") reported by email a while ago, but that person wasn't able to send me any test image files with the problem, so I couldn't test my proposed cure. If you could email me an image (or, better still, the extracted metadata: exiv2 ex problem_file.jpg) that has not yet been modified by Photini it could be helpful.

I found an example file. Here is the gzipped result from "exiv2 ex problem_file.jpg".

Thank you. I can reproduce the problem and will find a solution tomorrow. (And thank you for finding that exiv2 bug report - I hadn't seen that before and it's definitely related.)
