Hello everyone! I recently switched to Darktable and I’m really enjoying it, but the app keeps crashing intermittently.
Crashes typically when I am in lightable and click/move photos around in zoomable lightable layout. Sometimes crashes when I switch between windows. Used to crash when I choose Style to apply.
Software/hardware info
Darktable 5.4.1 on a Mac Mini M2 Pro (macOS Tahoe 26.3.1). Installed via command “brew install --cask darktable”.
Using google suggested settings for mac:
processing:
- darktable resources: large (tried default too)
- OpenCL GPU acceleration: turned everything off
general: - theme: darktable
- use system fonts: no
- GUI controls and text DPI: -1
Terminal logs:
