XnView Software

Thanks, that works for the installation.
Unfortunately, XnViewMP does not remember the settings you have made and starts in the default view every time.
However, the directory ~/.config/xnviewmp is created and the files in it look OK.
Do you have any tips for that too?


I also see ~/.config ...

I've had the same issue. The problem is the XnView pixbuf dependency is named different.

XnView wants: libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0
And Debian names it: libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-0

This is how I've worked around it.

sudo dpkg -i --ignore-depends=libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 XnViewMP-linux-x64.deb

Then you need to modify ...

It seems it doesn't like using the recycle bin for deleting from mount points. It's unclear if it's a btrfs thing (mounting a subvolume), or more general.

If I try "gio trash (filename)" it gives an error:

Trashing on system internal mounts is not supported

Is that what you mean?

I'm having the same problem on Debian. Except, when I delete the file on the system drive, it sends it to the recycle bin, but on an attached USB hard drive, it doesn't. Both are using the BTRFS file system.

The USB hard drive has a BTRFS file system, same as the system SSD drive that sends files to the recycle bin.

Here's the log, as requested.

Yes, the file is local. I do have the gio tool.

I'm running: XnViewMP-linux-x64.deb 1.9.2

Deleting an image doesn't send it to the recycle bin, but rather permanently deletes it.
