My bad. It's working now. Had to uninstall the version i got from https://community.linuxmint.com/software/view/geany delete everything geany then use the right way apt install geany. Bad versions of your distros are available in the Linux Mint GUI Software Manager that comes with every Linux Mint Cinnamon installation. This must have been where the -i user got their flatpak version. Because I started out with that one and got the same message and reinstalled geany as a Linux Mint System Package... I bet a lot of people installed bad distros of your software from there. So I had to install geany 3 times before I got it working... because of that bad distro.
I'm thinking most people would have given up and moved on. Meaning this is a lost opportunity to expand geany's user base. Especially since I switched to Linux because of the end of Win10 security updates in 2025. Bought my brother a sweet ThinkPad 480T i7 laptop that can't run win10, for $200 from Amazon and put Linux mint on that one too. In my opinion, Linux machines usage will expand the closer we get to Oct25. And Linux mint installation and GUI make it really easy to use.
