[Pkg-phototools-devel] Bug#969137: Bug#969137: darktable: Histogram not shown

[Fabián Inostroza]

Hi,

I found the issue (with the help of reddit), it was related to the
configuration file. The height of the histogram entry was empty on the
darktablerc file, like this:
plugins/darkroom/histogram/height=

I put some value (200), opened darktable and the histogram was shown.
Then I tried renaming the darktablerc file and letting darktable
recreate it but it also had the empty histogram height.
Tried renaming the whole config folder and the darktablerc file was
recreated correctly. The weird thing is that after restoring
the old configuration folder darktable recreates correctly the darktablerc file.

Anyway, maybe darktable should use a good default values for empty
entries, at least for the height of the histogram.
I was using a previous version of darktable, the one that was on the
repositories, maybe that confused some settings.

Regards.
