When updating from the stable 4.2.x series, please bear in
mind that your edits will be preserved during this process, but the new
library and configuration will no longer be usable with 4.2.x.

You are strongly advised to take a backup first.

Important note: to make sure that darktable can keep on supporting the raw file format for your camera, please read this post on how/what raw samples you can contribute to ensure that we have the full raw sample set for your camera under CC0 license!

Bug Fixes

  • Graduated Density : Fix density computation for negative EVs.

  • Fixed wrong allocation of OpenCL image buffers for blending in
    DEVELOP_BLEND_CS_RAW.

  • Fixed roi_in calculation in highlights and RAW Chromatic
    Aberrations modules.

  • Fix snap to grid for cm/inch units in print view. Only mm was
    properly handled.

  • Fix issue where the highlight reconstruction method was reset to
    clip when applying a style from the lighttable.

  • Fix loading some image format using GraphicMagick on Windows.

  • Fix some possible wrong pixels at the lower-right border of images
    due to some miscalculation in Input Color Profile & Color Balance.

  • Fix retouch module ROI computation when a crop is active making some
    clone area inactive when the source was outside of the cropped
    area. This bug was only visible in darkroom main view.

  • Fix positioning of demosaicer RoI in according to algorithm and
    sensor. Avoid some possible (small) black artifacts on image
    borders.

Notes

  • When exporting to AVIF, EXR, JPEG XL, or XCF, selecting specific
    metadata (e.g. geo tag or creator) is not currently possible. For
    AVIF, EXR, JPEG XL, and XCF formats, darktable will not include any
    metadata fields unless the user selects all of the checkboxes in the
    export preference options.

  • In order to support the correct display of numbers in darktable, the
    minimum supported Gtk version has had to be increased to
    3.24.15. For people who need to build darktable with an older
    version, this can be achieved by removing line 241 of the
    darktable.css file on your system. See
    #13166.

  • Starting with this release a new support policy regarding macOS
    versions will be in place -- darktable releases will now only
    support those macOS versions that are also supported by Apple.
    Release 4.4 therefore drops support for macOS versions older than
    11.3.
