help -> report bug is broken

[BMaxV]

Description The help -> report bug function causes a "unhandled exception" pop up.

To Reproduce I don't know, click the button?

Here are the details from the "unhandled exception" window:

Version I am using xubuntu 22.04

The version window says 1.6, your website says the newest one is 2.1, is this a problem for my distribution? If so I am sorry.

If I use sudo apt upgrade pinta apt says that pinta is already the newest version.

Thank you for writing this software otherwise. Works mostly fine, I will file more bugs if I notice more things :)

Yeah that is a really old version of Pinta. I think this is the same as https://bugs.launchpad.net/pinta/+bug/1888883 which was fixed for Pinta 1.7, but I'd strongly suggest using Pinta 2.1 if possible (perhaps through the snap or flatpak package)

[BMaxV]

So, the right move would seem to be to use flatpak, but that doesn't respect the system theme I set up. I guess I will use the old version. Not your fault though.
