RawTherapee 5.8 not recognising lens correctly

There still seems to be an issue with the repackaged version of RawTherapee 5.8 and it’s ability to recognize lenses.

I’m running Windows 10 Enterprise (build 1803).

This screenshot is from a fresh install of RawTherapee 5.7


profiled_lens_57

Note it has correctly detected the lens and displays that in the main window and in the PLC section of the command windows

Now, I’ve uninstalled 5.7 and installed 5.8 - I’ve also deleted the PP3 files to make sure the directory is as it was. This version of 5.8 was downloaded today, 27th of July, 2020.

Per the screenshot, it is NOT detecting the lens correctly (same raw file):


profiled_lens_58

However, it appears the profiles are there as I’m able to manually select and apply the profile and it does appear to work:
lens_58_selection
lens_58_applied

However, the lens remains unidentified in the main window, even though the profile is working:
raw58_post

Please note that the only changes I’ve made to these screenshots is to edit out the path as it includes my name, which I’d prefer remain private.

It appears to me that the issue is the actual detection of the lens; which a regression as it was working correction 5.7
