Not Working after Upgrade Ubuntu 18.04

[freewee]

sView working with W7 W10 Ubuntu 16.04 LTS After Ubuntu 18.04 Upgrade, clicking the icon says error when opening the application, Nothing happens. I try to uninstall and reinstall without changing the behavior.

Am I alone for this? What can I try ??

Thank you

I have found that Ubuntu has package with the same name (but completely another application), so that after upgrade wrong package is selected by apt, in case if you are using Launchpad. I haven't yet solved this issue - the proper solution would be renaming package, but this would be awkward. So maybe I'll just play with version numbers to make my package preferred.

Thank you for the quick answer! I will look at that… Many thanks for your great job!

I came across exactly the same problem when upgrading my KDE Neon to the base of Ubuntu 18.04. I hope this will soon resolve, because I consider sView the best cross-platform 3D image viewer!

Package with epoch=1 has been uploaded to PPA for bionic (Ubuntu 18.04) to workaround name collision (package can be renamed in future to properly solve the problem).

Try updating / reinstalling sView from PPA. https://launchpad.net/~sview/+archive/ubuntu/stable
