I do not know if this is the right place to report such things and if there are 
some people who could benefit from it. So please tell me if I my reports are of 
no interest here.

Now I have seen that the upside down orientation comes from "mirror: both" in 
the "crop and rotate" modul. Strangely this adjustment is not set when I expand 
this module for the first time. Only closing and reopen it shows this.
