Re: 2026 Screenshot Thread

^^^ @Sector11 : instead of grabbing the medit_1.4.1 package directly, select the 'Add repository and install manually' option. This will give you instructions for adding the medit-gtk3 repository and relevant gpg-key.
Below is a print-out of the commands for debian13 install:

echo 'deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/antonbatenev:/medit/Debian_13/ /' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/home:antonbatenev:medit.list
curl -fsSL https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:antonbatenev:medit/Debian_13/Release.key | gpg --dearmor | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/home_antonbatenev_medit.gpg > /dev/null
sudo apt update
sudo apt install medit

You can of course disable the source and key after install, but I guess it makes sense to keep it active for a while in order to get further updates for this gtk3 version.

Thanks.
Works perfectly. Here with openbox/carbon/debian13.
On Wayland, both with bunsen-wayland and on sid, a memory access error occurs.

^Can you find a deb file for medit-gtk3?

No.

Huh? There are debs for Debian 12 and 13 linked from the medit-gtk3 github page...
https://software.opensuse.org/download. … kage=medit

Click Debian>Grab binary packages directly

Yes, I know that.  I was very excited about getting medit back up and running.
I grabbed the Debian 13 .deb file and stored it on my drive:

/media/10/DEBs/medit_1.4.1-1_all.deb

Then as explained here it did not install because Debian 13 has no medit-gtk3 package to install with it.

OFF TOPIC - sorry I brought it here
Carry on folks nothing else to see here.

Re: 2026 Screenshot Thread

@Secot, it's fine, we discuss a bunch of Linux stuff here.

Sorry I misunderstood, but what in the actual... ??!?!!!?? Why offer a Debian metapackage that pulls in a package that doesn't exist? Why didn't he just link to a build of medit-gtk3?

Your supposed to add the repo, then install the metapackage? Just do that, then remove the repo(s) from your sources and forget that stupid github page ever existed.

Here's the deb, what a clusterduck...
http://download.opensuse.org/repositori … _amd64.deb

-edit- It installed with no issues on Carbon, and it appears in jmenu (not shown in my scrot).
