Same issues since updating Linux Mint from 20.3 to 21.
First time trying gifcurry; thanks for making it. I was looking for something with a Linux gui that let me crop animated gifs (and was lighter-weight than GIMP).
I think I'm seeing this same issue with gifcurry-6.0.1.0-x86_64.AppImage
on PopOS 22.04.

(Downloaded that and converted it from webp
to gif
with imagemagick.)

Dependency versions:
libgtk-3-0==3.24.33-1ubuntu2.2
ffmpeg==7:4.4.2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1
libgstreamer1==1.20.3-0ubuntu1
gstreamer1.0-plugins-base==1.20.1-1ubuntu0.2
imagemagick==8:6.9.11.60+dfsg-1.3ubuntu0.22.04.5
EDIT: This got me idly wondering when PopOS will release version 24. I looked it up and it's... today. If anyone is on some flavor of Ubuntu 24, is gifcurry working for you?
In the time since I posted this question I've moved mostly away from Ubuntu flavors and now run Debian 12, where everything works has been my experience. I am interested in PopOS still so I'd like to hear whether this behavior persists in the newest release.
I've used the appimage for years. Thanks for your work.
I updated Ubuntu Budgie to 22.04 and have never gotten it to work. There's either no preview or the aspect ratio and colors for the preview are wrong (too narrow and tall, almost b&w but not quite) or else the app locks up. If I'm able to create a gif it turns out correctly. After one or two, though, it will usually lock up. Same with Pop-OS 22.04 - so 22.04 seems to be the critical difference from when it was working for me in 20.04. The dependencies are all satisfied I believe. I wonder if anyone else experiences this and if there are suggestions.
Thanks
Same behavior on Linux Mint 21.1 Cinnamon
My workaround is to use ffmpeg to convert the video to ogv
input=yourVideo.mp4
ffmpeg -i $input -c:v libtheora -qscale:v 6 -c:a libvorbis -qscale:a 5 $input.ogv
