Xmp variable broken

Hi all,
I updated from 5.0 to 5.2 some time back . Its seems it has broken the $(Xmp.dc.creator) variable. In that it is no longer replaced with the creator’s name.
The name is definitely in the metadata.
I only noticed this when adding some watermarks recently but have traced it back to images working under 5.0 and not under 5.2

I substituted some other variables and they seem to work ok. But none of the Xmp ones work.
Everything else seems to be functioning as expected.
I double checked for case and typos.

Any ideas for me to check?

Should have been fixed in 5.2.1 (see Xmp.dc.creator no longer supported? · Issue #18976 · darktable-org/darktable · GitHub). So update to 5.2.1.
