Hi @wisdomlight, could you try the 1.11. pre-release which should (finally) fix this issue: https://github.com/adobe/brackets/releases/tag/release-1.11-prerelease-1

On linux mint 18.2
I downloaded the file from brackets

when package installer does its check for dependencies - there is a problem with a libgcrypt 11 (>=1.4.5)
the repository of linux mint says the lib has been replaced by 2.0
I installed the upgraded lib but brackets still does not install.

the people from linux mint say that ppssible problem is that the libgcrypt11 has been hard coded and this prevents the next libegcrypt that is supposed to replace the libgcrypt 11 take effect.

any how brackets does not work on my linux mint 18.2

On Ubuntu 16.04 I had the issue with the downloaded .deb file from the website and libgcrypt11 and I made sure libgcrypt20 is installed and updated (since libgcrypt11 is deprecated).

The pre-release 1.11 works fine with the libgcrypt20.

Thanks all for the thread.
