Current Xnview DEB file

Post by mickee384 »

I tried updating XnView to latest version, downloaded the .deb file and ran the file with GDEBI. It cannot be installed as its missing a dependency (libglib2.0) It's the current .deb that is on the website. I have been a contributing user of XnView and would like to keep my version up to date. I tried installing libglib2.0 but I have a newer version already installed, so it won't allow me to install the dependency. If you require any more info, please let me know

My specifications: OS: Ubuntu MATE 24.04.1 LTS (Linux) x86_64 16GB RAM intel Core i7

Current version of XnView: 1.7.2 64bit, Libformat 7.180
