It still has difficulty displaying the old PTO, but I created a new one

    using current Hugin, using the original images, and Lux has the same
    problem with it. I checked in Hugin, the images from my friend's
    camera-that-he's-so-proud-of come in with a 5.75deg field of view. I
think I'll stick with my Sony.
5.75 degrees fov sounds like a very long tele indeed.
Too long ago for me to remember. I think his present camera goes up to 600mm. It doesn't have interchangeable lens, just a single quite nice lens with a wide zoom range.


    Looks like the Lux GUI consists solely of a file selector?


What makes you think that? Maybe you haven't tried to access the menu? Just move the mouse to the top margin of the window (or full screen). The menu is usually hidden to show you nothing but your image - both the old and new GUI only show when you move to near the top of the screen.

Didn't know that at all. When moving around in an image, I'm usually too busy chasing it to notice that anything popped up. Move the mouse fast in a direction, the image zooms off and keeps zooming off after the mouse stops. At least on my system. Even worse when I use my graphics tablet!

Sorry, ages ago, I worked for a company that sold TrueVision Targa image capture boards for IBM ATs. They came with graphics software known as TIPS (Targa Image Processing System). It had what I consider just about the perfect UI for image-focused work. No menu bar, no window, just your image. Left mouse button was for clicking, dragging, selecting. Right mouse button popped up the menu tree of options available (depending on selection in effect, etc).

So I clicked right button expecting a menu to pop up. Don't know if it's my bad, but it still seems a thought. I noticed that right click does other things in Lux, so maybe ctrl-right-click to bring up the menu, starting wherever the mouse pointer is?

I uploaded a debian package <https://bitbucket.org/kfj/pv/downloads/lux-1.2.2-x86_64.deb> for debian 12 stable. It might be usable for other debian-based distros.

Thanks, downloaded, tried it. It installed over the 1.1.6 that was there before. Trying to run lux in a terminal gave me this:

lux: error while loading shared libraries: libexiv2.so.28: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Bookworm comes with libexiv2-27. I have that installed. I guess the libexiv2 version your package is looking for is -28?
