It may not matter to you, but it does break the auto-selection on the darktable 
module. Fortunately, the camera is in the latest update available with 
lensfun-update-data... if for some reason you can't use that utility, the 
attached xml file contains only that profile, and should go wherever lensfun 
profiles live on your system (~/.local/share/lensfun on linux, and I believe 
darktable/lensfun on Windows).

As you've found, the presets on that module don't play nicely with 
auto-selection... if that module ever gets some love from developers, that 
might be something that could be improved. :)
