Bug Description

Binary package hint: libimage-exiftool-perl

According to the libimage-exiftool-perl manual there are two files in the exiftool distribution for converting xmp to iptc and the other way around. These are however missing. These files can be found here: http://search.cpan.org/src/EXIFTOOL/Image-ExifTool-6.90/xmp2iptc.args

Based on this answer:

http://www.cpanforum.com/posts/5972

I'm tempted to install the two files in:

/usr/share/doc/libimage-exiftool-perl/

However, since this is not such an urgent issue, I think it would be better to follow Debian so that we don't get out of sync.

Any comment?
