Importing Images

[Glen Randall]

Hi Mike,

I think you misunderstood what I meant. If I install the flatpack from 
the Mint Software Manager I do get V4.2.1, but if I install natively I 
get V4.1. Robby recommended I don't install the flatpack version due to 
problem importing images and my Google searches indicate that for Mint 
the repositories restrict you to 4.1 due to KDE versions of the 
underlying Ubuntu version.

The solution seem to be downloading the latest version and compiling. 
Which sounds a bit daunting.

Regards

Glen
