Post by: sswcharlie on May 04, 2025, 03:40:15 AM
Hi
Can someone advise which is the version of Scribus used for Linux Mint 21.3.      A link with terminal instructions would be great.
Thanks
Charles

From what i can glimmer from searching online. you prolly get 1.5.8 (not certain) you may be able to upgrade to 1.6.

It seems that the latest mint version (v22) has 1.6.x available.

If possible, you should use the latest Scribus from the stable version (currently 1.6.4)

You can get there by using a version of Linux Mint that has the current package (I guess that upgrading to the 22.1 LTS might be a good idea anyway... But I'm no Linux Mint user).

As an alternative, you can get the Appimage for 1.6.4 which might also work on your current version of Linux Mint:
