Description Butter 2023-09-03 11:28:03 UTC

SUMMARY
Krita Crashes instantly on starting it up through steam on Linux Mint, this behavior was consistent on both of my Linux systems but not on my windows system, This issue has prevented me from using Krita through steam, it remains fully functional through the Flatpak version.



STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch Krita with the play button on steam.

OBSERVED RESULT
The Krita splash screen outline appears and then quickly goes away, the program does not successfully launch. 


EXPECTED RESULT
The program launches completely after the play button on steam is clicked.

Emmet, I guess this is a duplicate? And already solved?

As of writing this comment I am still unable to launch Krita through steam on any system running Linux.

Hi, Butter!

Have you tried to update Krita through Steam recently? The update with the fix was published on 31st of August only...

Btw, how do you install Steam? Through Flatpack or via some other method?
