OS Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS
osmo version 0.2.14-4
Curious about using osmo version 0.4.0-1. If known when will this or next expected version be in Ubuntu Software Center
dependency GTK+ >= 3.10 not met
Per GTK+ website new version of GTK+ can live with older versions
Question: Can someone please provide instructions to install osmo version 0.4.0-1 as well as required dependencies on Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS or above, perhaps in the README?
Reason: Finding conflicting information across Ubuntu, Linux, and GTK+ forums concerning GTK+ higher versions living on same machine.
Thank you for your efforts - I love this PIM - I've rated 5 stars in reviews. Engineers dream can use in multiple ways.

Osmo, AFAIK needs Gtk 3.10 or later. Ubuntu 16.04 has 3.18 so that should not be a problem.
Try this way:
Inistall build dependencies:
sudo apt install libarchive-dev libgringotts-dev libgtk-3-dev libgtkspell3-3-dev libical-dev libnotify-dev libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev libxml2-dev build-essential xdg-utils
Remove osmo if installed:
sudo apt remove osmo
Download & extract the latest osmo ( 0.4 ) and open the terminal in the extracted directory.
./configure --prefix=/usr
make -j$(nproc)
sudo make install
I'd also advise you to keep the source directory somewhere in case you need to uninstall osmo. Should that be the case, again, open the terminal there and run "sudo make uninstall".
Hope that helps, cheers!
Yes I followed all your steps precisely and now have osmo 0.4 working.
Looks better, opens much faster and fonts and letters do not change or
disappear, which was happening on two differnt computers and I switched ram
as well. Seems good now pulled all my current info up no issues.
Thanks for your response.
