# g-lensfun-update-data(1)

update Lensfun's database

## NAME

g-lensfun-update-data - update Lensfun's database

## SYNOPSIS

**g-lensfun-update-data**

## DESCRIPTION

**g-lensfun-update-data** is a GUI version of **lensfun-update-data**.  Both programs do the same, however, **g-lensfun-update-data** will ask for a root password if needed in a popup window rather than on the command line.  This way, it comes in handy if a GUI program wants to let the user update Lensfun's database.

See the manpage of **lensfun-update-data** for further information, and pay special attention to the DIAGNOSTICS section.
