Bug Description
Digikam shows an option to rotate .ORF files (Olympus RAW photos), however, this action always fails -- because it is appearently not implemented. Since it does not work, it should not be shown.
Please, either remove action from the UI until it is implemented -- or implement support for rotating RAW images.

I guess the ORF writing support is not good enough. Have you enabled writing to RAW files?
Workarounds include converting to DNG or PNG/JPEG first. I have not noticed this since my Olympus camera rotates the photos automatically using a orientation sensor.
