Thanks for suggest. I will try it, but actually I prefer a more agnostic solution. The use of debs packages generates some distrust to me. I think you could provide a flatpak or snap package in the future, the updates arrive in real time, they are loaded in flathub or anywhere else you want, you could provide a flatpakref. And it could be better integrated into the desktop.

Hi, it works really great. Are you thinking provide a snap? It would be nice, I see some advance in the main page. Will you?

The problem is not related to Ubuntu 18.04. In fact, I could confirm that current AppImage binary downloaded from the Release page cannot run under my Debian Unstable. Terminal output is:

% ./flameshot_x86_64_0.5.1.AppImage 
QXcbConnection: XCB error: 9 (BadDrawable), sequence: 274, resource id: 73400325, major code: 55 (CreateGC), minor code: 0
QXcbConnection: XCB error: 9 (BadDrawable), sequence: 275, resource id: 73400325, major code: 130 (Unknown), minor code: 

Not sure if it is to be fixed or not but the issue do exist.

Please release a update for Ubuntu package, it was last updated in February.

@omkarnathsingh You can try Travis CI daily build version.

@ZetaoYang Where to download those .deb file?

Thanks. :)

That link doesnt give anything to download, i checked multiple time

@omkarnathsingh Are you kidding me?

Not kidding. Maybe my ISP to blame then, that website shows me nothing, Firefox says website not found. Let me try using VPN.

@omkarnathsingh , you the link provided above is not the link that you would use. You need to go to Travis CI and run the build for your system Xenial, Fedora, whatever... After you do that, there will be a button that says "Raw Log". Click on that and scroll to the bottom and look for a URL that has transfer.sh in it.

All, I have tried the Travis CI build on 18.04. Since there is no BionicBeaver option I'm building for Xenial... I get the same problem. Flameshot does not start.

Developer please make a release, its not that easy to do all that to update, i am still on february version.

@omkarnathsingh Working in new docker building enviroment.

@ZetaoYang (face-palm)... not sure how I missed that. ty!

@lupoDharkael , would still be nice to have an official release for Bionic.

@ZetaoYang , that's docker not Travis CI... hmmm. I hate to ask, but I'm a LXC guy. how would I pull that down?

@TragicWarrior Maybe you don't know flameshot CI building system. Travis CI using docker to build all linux distribution. So it will support ubuntu 18.04 CI building in Travis for flameshot soon.

So weird that it's so hard to get a update. Development is going so good, but no attention on making release process and release on GitHub making it available with ease to all community. Not everyone is interested to build it or whatever those steps are.

Just make a release.

@pleabargain

Don't see the fact in your message...
On my side, compiling « flameshot » from github work perfect.
In case you want to try it, here is the package, just unzip it to see the .deb (see attachment).

flameshot_0.6.0.6.g1d7186a_amd64.zip
