OK, I'm processing Nikon D200 NEF (RAW) photos with gimp and ufraw. ufraw shows the exif data properly.

I just checked the build logs for more recent Suse versions and ufraw does
definitely have exif support.

It is not that the EXIF header is missing, it just somewhat incompatible with _most_ programs around. Only `gimp' and `exiftool' seem to be able to read it.

For example:

$ exifread MDBonsai_4099.jpg filename=MDBonsai_4099.jpg End of file found prematurely.
ERROR

$ exiftool MDBonsai_4099.jpg ExifTool Version Number : 6.57 File Name : MDBonsai_4099.jpg File Size : 122 kB File Modification Date/Time : 2008:06:29 22:55:57 File Type : JPEG MIME Type : image/jpeg JFIF Version : 1.1 Resolution Unit : inches X Resolution : 320 Y Resolution : 320 Comment : Great Falls, MD. 2008/06/15, ak195@**** Image Width : 960 Image Height : 787 Image Size : 960x787
