Thank you so much for the PPA! I just finally upgraded from 14.04 and I really like to use Shutter for my work and I had even written a small plugin for it. It would be a real shame to see it go! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed

[Bug 1765726] Re: Optional dependencies are missing for Shutter in Ubuntu 18.04

Very good to all, I understand that for the Ubuntu team, Shutter has no solution for incompatibility of the dependencies with the new Gnome canons. It is not a solution but for the moment I have been able to make it run without any problem with this PPA, which also comes with support for Ubuntu

I normally upgrade 1 to 2 month prior to each new release. However, due to this bug I'm staying on 16.04.5 until 2021, or until I discover something that has all the features that shutter does. I took shutter for granted before the rug was yank out from under me. I'd pay $100.00 to the man who

Oh, and... Both Ubuntu and Shutter are free software. You get what you pay for. Free software maintainers don't owe you anything, and aren't under any obligation to continue maintaining their software just because you don't want to have to stop using it. Speaking as the maintainer of many free
