6 months ago To add to this discussion, on a Mint 21.3 Cinnamon laptop, I did the following:
sudo apt purge pix pix-data pix-dbg- Visited "http://packages.linuxmint.com/list.php?release=vera#backport"
- Manually downloaded pix and pix-data .deb files
cd Downloadssudo dpkg -i pix-data_2.8.9+vera_all.debsudo dpkg -i pix_2.8.9+vera_amd64.deb
This version of Pix, 2.8.9, solves the regression in Pix 3.2.2 and 3.0.2 not printing the desired file name upon using the formatting string:
%M{%Y%m%d-%H%M%S}%E
which is supposed to output something like: 20240220-221802.jpeg but instead prints out what @Curius16 mentioned
I'm not aware what is the protocol here regarding tagging the devs on issues, so would be really obliged if I am pardoned this gesture - @clefebvre

Bug description
Hello. I've always renamed my pictures files with the pattern: %D{%Y-%m-%d__%H-%M-%S}%E (— are 2 underscores) with a result in the form of: 2016-03-17__10-48-01.jpg Since Mint 21.2: "Pix, which was originally based on gThumb 3.2.8, was rebased on gThumb 3.12.2. ". Now the resulting name of the files is in the form: --——-2023-08-04--14.51.11-.jpg (--——- are 2 dashes, 2 underscores, 1 dash) See attached picture:
Steps to reproduce
Try to rename several files with the pattern: %D{%Y-%m-%d__%H-%M-%S}%E (— are 2 underscores)
Expected behavior
The resulted names should be in the form of: 2016-03-17__10-48-01.jpg (— are 2 underscores) but they are in the form of: --——-2023-08-04--14.51.11-.jpg (--——- are 2 dashes, 2 underscores, 1 dash)
