I downloaded a lens profile from Laowa for a lens they make (15mm F4 if it matters). The lens has no electronic connections. Laowa only made one, even though the lens comes in several mounts, but is otherwise the same. I use it either on a Pentax or a Canon RP with adapter.
The lens profile, however, shows as "Nikon" for all mounts, and so I have to remember to look there when setting the profile in Lr Classic. It won't stick because again, no electronic info on the lens so no exif data for it.
I'm wondering if it's a simple as editing the .lcp file since it's XML. But there's a bunch of spots mentioning Nikon (which is probably what they used to make the profile for all mounts), like so:
So would changing any of that list the profile under say "Pentax" in the dropdown list of "Make" in Lens Corrections? (that "PrettyName" is, well, cute)

Then this for the lens itself:stCameraProfileName>NIKON D810 - 15 mm f/4.0</stCameraProfileName>
<stCamera:Make>NIKON CORPORATION</stCamera:Make>
<stCamera:Model>NIKON D810</stCamera:Model>
<stCamera:UniqueCameraModel>Nikon D810</stCamera:UniqueCameraModel>
<stCamera:LensPrettyName>Laowa FF 15mmf/4 Macro 1X SHIFT</stCamera:LensPrettyName>
