---- If I had to guess I would say that you are using darktable from a third party
repository that is not meant to be used with your OS version. As Robert suggested, it might be that you are using Ubuntu, have used Pascal's PPA to install dt and then had an OS update. That tends to disable the PPA so you are stuck with the old (and incompatible) version of dt you had previously installed. If that's the case just re-enable the PPA and update your system. ---- Yes, I used the ppa and yes it stopped working properly after an update. How does one reenable the ppa?
