Re: [Passwordsafe-linux] [passwordsafe:bugs] #1379 Linux Mint 1.00 PasswordSafe Does Not Start

[Drew E. <dre...@gm...>]

Thanks for the suggestion,

1.0 didn't work

0.94 seems to work, at least it starts up without an error. Will try that
version for a while and see how it goes.

Linux 12.2 was released in Apr 2014. pwsafe 0.94 was released on Dec 13,
2014 and is currently averaging over 100 downloads/week.

Everything before 1.0 and after 0.94 is getting less than 10
downloads/week. So, they don't appear to be good candidates.

Anyway that's how I picked a version to try. Hope this is helpful for other
for folks facing trying to get something that works on a vintage platform.
