I'm beginning to think that the module order gods have been punking me
since darktable 3.8 was released. Yesterday I got the Ubuntu 20.04
release on my third machine and set about synchronizing the
preferences. Once again the module order came up in the
display-referred mode despite me having set it to scene-referred in
preferences - processing. This time I had all my preferences set
identically, but doing the exit - restart routine did not achieve the
desired result of having the modules in the scene-referred order. Then
I noticed that the module order in darkroom was set to "legacy". Once
that was reset to "v3.0 for RAW input", the modules regained their
proper order. So to all those devious module order gods, I'm onto you
now, you sneaky rascals!

machine to display-referred, exit darktable, restart darktable, switch
processing back to scene-referred, and /VOILA!/, the module order on
the "A" machine is now in the preferred order. Now I must display my
penance to the module order gods by consuming a moderate quantity of
Claret.
Merry Christmas, all!

find where that can be rectified to the scene-referred module order.
Ideas are most welcome.

First off, Merry Christmas to all, and thanks aplenty to the
developers of darktable for yet another release.
Now to a point of confusion for me. I have two basically identical
Win 10 machines on which darktable is installed. In checking my
configurations after loading v3.8 this morning I find that both
machines are set to scene-referred (preferences - processing). All
other options are identical on both machines. Yet when I open a
photo in darkroom on the "B" machine, the module order precisely
follows the scene-referred module order specified in Section 12.7 on
p. 282 of The Fine Manual as follows:
watermark
framing
monochrome
lowlight vision
velvia
color correction
shadows and highlights
contrast brightness saturation
color balance rgb
sharpen
astrophoto denoise
censorize
crop
exposure
retouch
rotate and perspective
haze removal
lens correction
denoise (profiled)
white balance
On the "A" machine, the modules selected are the same, yet the order
is mostly different as follows:
watermark
framing
velvia
sharpen
color correction
contrast brightness saturation
monochrome
lowlight vision
shadows and highlights
astrophoto denoise
color balance rgb
censorize
haze removal
crop
rotate and perspective
lens correction
retouch
exposure
denoise (profiled)
white balance
Those modules in red are NOT in the sequence specified in Section
12.7 on p. 282 of The Fine Manual, and as yet, I've not found a
means of correcting the module order to be in sync with the
specified order in The Fine Manual. Can anyone point me in the
right direction to correct the module order on the "A" machine? We
certainly do not wish to upset the module order gods on Christmas
Eve. Thanks for any insights.
