Good that we have people like you that understand the system...

For starters, if the name didn't include "2015" the features in the 10 releases (plus sub releases) would not be perceived as bug fixes. I geotag every image so this is important to me as well, yet I am able to geotag even with this nuisance glitch. The fact that Smit Keniya and Victoria have confirmed that Adobe has acknowledged the issue after a couple of days of it being reports suggests to me that Adobe is indeed listening and responding.
To Norbert, the point is that software is extremely complicated of interrelated functions where minor issues can sometimes results in bugs. Adobe does not claim to be perfect, and evidently unnamed photographers aren't perfect either, or they wouldn't need software like LR. This simply is not a catastrophic situation, message boards like this are to raise issues that come up, and it has been my experience that Adobe address such issues when brought to their attention. Using this forum for whining dribble is simply addle.

George's other comments don't seem like he's trolling so I have no idea what to make of such a moronic assessment of the situation.  Not wanting to keep paying for a broken product does not make someone a troll, or an unreasonable consumer, or a bad photographer.  And Kees is not alone.  I have zero use for Lightroom in the next 30 days other than to geotag photos from a recent cross-country trip.  Why on earth wouldn't I cancel my subscription until they resolve this issue?

What has a map location software problem to do with a perfect image coming out of a camera?

And as a photographer you shouldn't require Lightroom because your photos would be perfect out of camera.
Why does every little hiccup bring out the trolls?

I have a similar problem with Lightroom  6.10.1 on Mac OS  10.12 [5].
The map module sometimes goes frozen and you have to toggle to another module and get back tio the map module to unlock it.

I would like to copy all of the above. The issue is so widely discused that it seems (at the least) a matter of ignorance to scale this down to a personal and individual issue.
Since some two years every "update" comes along with new bugs. That's not what I know from  my long Adobe-past ... Over a decade you produced solid and stable software with new features in every yearly upgrade. With the big business succes, those days seem to be over.  That the newest Version still has "2015" in it is a good indication, that real progress stopped and since then updates are merely bug-fixes, introducing new bugs every time. 
So stop asking "standard questions" and start doing your job properly!!
If I as a photographer and designer would deliver that way to my customers, I would have been long out of business by now ...
