A little digging around and the problem goes back to ufraw days.

https://sourceforge.net/p/ufraw/bugs/401/

I recompiled nufraw with Gimp 2.9.5, had a good look at the configure output,
added anything that was not found.

Ended up with a monster plugin 5MB. Still no good, the image opened in Gimp
2.9.5 has no metadata.

The same applies to the stand-alone nufraw, if sending directly to GIMP. In this
case exporting to a new file keeps metadata.

Where is "plug-in-metadata-decode-exif", not in any version of Gimp I use. I did
find one reference to it, an empty entry in Saule Goodes pdb database.

There is another error message, try and change the icc to something other than
sRGB
