Please provide additional context if applicable. You can attach files too, but might need to rename to .txt or .zip
Photos I used (jpgs and raws)
P7079112.zip
P7109532.zip
Lens correction does not completely hide the dark line, whether using embedded metadata or lensfun database.
The line appears in the exported photo.
The issue can be resolved by cropping every image with this issue, but this is tedious and not something I want in my workflow.

Reproduce the issue in darktable 5.6.0 on Windows 11 using the attached P7079112.zip and P7109532.zip files, opening the photos in the darkroom tab with default modules. Compare vertical and horizontal ORF and JPEG results with and without lens correction, and confirm that the dark border is absent from the exported photo when the issue is fixed.
