Update of Paratext 9 for Linux

0 votes
288 views

I am Linux Mint 21 MATE 64-bit. Our IT support person had to install WASTA Linux in a Virtual Box for me to run Paratext 9.0.
When can we expect a Linux version of Paratext that is compatible with Ubuntu/Mint 21?

Best answer

Linux has several complications that make it difficult to maintain. This, combined with the fact that the person that was doing the development work on Paratext for Linux has moved on to other things, means that we are not really supporting Linux anymore.

Sorry I don’t have better news. :worried:
