That's very strange. If you start darktable from a terminal, do you get any output about 
invalid Lensfun profiles? Have you modified the slr-nikon.xml database file (for instance 
to alter the "173" model name as discussed elsewhere)?

Right on Rys,

** (darktable:4370): WARNING **: 20:42:33.177: [Lensfun]
/var/lib/lensfun-updates/version_1/slr-nikon.xml:1:1: Error on line 1
char 1: Document must begin with an element (e.g. <book>)

I had modified the slr-nikon.xml file prior to purging everything and
re-installing, then updating the lensfun database.  There was a 7 as the
very beginning on the xml file.  not sure why it wasn't removed and
replaced as I did purge liblensfun1.  I guess the update directory was
not removed.

Thankyou.

This has resolved the Nikon list of Cameras however the lens 173 remains.

Let me see if I have the issue with the lens correct.
So I have the exiv2 lens name and the lensfun name not matching.  if
they match then programs like darktable would show the correct lens name
instead of ID 173?

I have created an .exiv2 file in my home directory but this doesn't
appear to do anything.  It matches 173 to the lensfun lensname.

I've even tried altering the lensfun database name to match the exiv2
one but only get ID 173 displayed in the exif data in darktable.

Now I can manually assign the lens correctly, but making a panorama from
multiple images means each image needs to be treated separately.  It'd
be nice to get it working as it did with another camera and lens I owned.

Thanks
Dakin
