Debian version ---- It was checked in Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 and earlier.
As well there is a Trusty tahr version and a Precise version.


Both the Precise and tahr version will need
libgif4_4.1.6-9ubuntu1_i386.deb installed first. The deb installer
should warn you of dependencies that need to be installed.

64 bit version compiled with fatdog630
(don't use on 32 bit operating system)

Note: on Lighthouse linux - 64bit - a link for libtiff is needed

_________________________________________________
Note: This version works properly on a wide variety of Puppies
however DO NOT use it on Lighthouse 503
because of an incompatibility with libjpeg
nor on Scottman's Akita which doesn't use the Jasper library
for advanced jpeg handling.

I compiled mtpaint using puppy431.

I have been running this on my 3.01 box and only needed to install jasper from puppy linux 4 repos.

[Gnuxo]

Can I ask a question?
I checked the Mtpaint website but I didn't find any mention of versioin 3.44.13.

...And the only versions available for download are 3.40

Is this a Git version or something?

[don570]

Yes. I got it from git.

There is a link to git from the official mtpaint page.

The current maintainer took the summer off for a vacation.

New version 3.44.28


Added Dutch right click .

I didn't notice any bugs.

a feature I really hope can be implemented in mtpaint is the ability to save tiff images with g4 compression, any time in past I tried to save a tiff image, after converting the colorspace from RGB to INDEXED, (2 colors: black and white), the result was always a LZW compressed tiff (not g4)

[wjaguar]

[Dingo]

I managed to bypass the issue converting the tiff in png and then converting the png to tiff g4 with graphicsmagick
