Ubuntu based distros do not install the lensfun utilities by default. Liblensfun-bin is required for the latest updates. Arch based distros install the full lensfun package so the update command is all that is needed. I would contact whomever maintains lensfun for Ubuntu and request the utilities be installed as a dependency.

But when working with images the list of lenses/cameras from within darktable was minuscule. Yesterday I rolled up my sleeves and dug into the problem. I determined that lensfun was a very minimal subset, perhaps not installed at all. I installed what I thought was lensfun (Python3-lensfun) from the Linux Mint Software Manager, didn't help. Finally figured out I needed to install liblensfun-bin and execute lensfun-update-data then things seemed to start working as expected....Lens correction worked, many more cameras/lenses to pick from...etc. Boy that seemed like a lot of work and rather cryptic at times. Was there a concise guide that outlined the need and method to add lensfun to darktable? Do I have it installed correctly and completely?
