Lens correction in dt 4.0.1

Hi all,
I have finally decided to give it a try and moved from 3.8 to 4.0.1. First impression is rather positive mainly due to filmic v6. However, I cannot find lens correction module anymore. It has disappeared from my presets and I cannot find it even when searching through a list of all modules. I am confused as there was no info related to it.
Probably the fact that I have built dt for the first time is relevant. Should I add something?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,
Adam

You certainly miss the lensfun “dev” package in your system when you have done the compilation…
on Debian/Ubuntu/… it’s called “liblensfun-dev” be careful with the version, thought, as only the “stable” version is supported, not the 3.95 one…

I have installed lensfun, but still cannot see the Lens Correction module in dt (Ubuntu 20.04LTS).
Could you please give me a hint where may be the problem?

Looks like the Ubuntu maintainers have not compiled with liblensfun installed. Report upstream.

I am not sure that it is the problem. I imagine there are plenty of users with Ubuntu 20.04 and dt 4.0.1 and nobody but me is complaining about the Lens Correction module. Therefore, I would suspect that it is rather me who is doing something incorrectly. But what?

Please report it to the ubuntuhandbookq repo maintianer.
