GPS info not being correctly saved #3

There is currently a bug in pyexiv2 that prevents GPS info being saved in the correct EXIF format: https://bugs.launchpad.net/pyexiv2/+bug/1067894

It's possible that other software may be able to read the latitude & longitude saved by Photini, but this can't be guaranteed. Until the bug is fixed, do not use Photini to set photograph locations.

Using GExiv2 instead of pyexiv2 completely avoids this problem.
