We’re proud to announce the new feature release of darktable, 5.0.0!
The github release is here: https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/releases/tag/release-5.0.0.
To build from source, do not use the autogenerated tarball provided by GitHub on the release page, download our tar.xz file instead. If you’re just building for yourself without creating a package for some distribution, then using source code cloning in git is an even more convenient way.
The checksums are:

When updating from the stable 4.8 series, please bear in mind that your edits will be preserved during this process, but the new library and configuration will no longer be usable with 4.8.
Ok, but what is DarkTable? The link is a to a changelog. Worthless.
Dang if only you could click the “about” link at the top of the page to find a comprehensive explaination of the software…
Too much work. If somebody is that excited about posting a new version release they should consider tossing in a blurb about what it does so I can tell if I even want to click the link.
If you know Adobe Lightroom, it offers similar functionalities. Typically professional post processing of photos.
