Hi.
If I add the PPA and install Shutter, Shutter still comes without them …

Dear Romario,

Awesome post man. I had to search for quite a long to get to this post. It was just the thing I needed for my Linux Mint 17.1 (Rebecca). Big thanks to you.

Now I can edit screenshots. Any idea how to do screencast using shutter?

Thanks,
Raiyeekm

Thanks for the helpful post.

Btw, why the standard packages don’t ship with these dependencies as required by default instead of recommended?

It’s a low overhead for a much nicer user experience, no?

I’ve just had this same problem on Linux Mint 17.1 — installing the packages solved the issue.

Sounds like a bug. Perhaps it’s a bug by design.

Lucid Lynx.

I tried installing the .deb package as mentioned. I got errors as shown below and Synaptic reported a broken package. So, I removed it.

Tried installing again. More errors. And, now I don’t even have the half-working Shutter. Fantastic !

What version of Ubuntu are you using? You might want to download the .deb package directly from our download page (/downloads/).
You’ll find them under the topic “Ubuntu packages”.

I am unable to install libgoo-canvas-perl. However, I can see libgnome2-canvas-perl already installed. But, the edit button still remains disabled.

I get the following error message when installing libgoo-canvas-perl.

Reading package lists… Done

Reading state information… Done
Package libgoo-canvas-perl is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package libgoo-canvas-perl has no installation candidate

With dpkg -l | grep canvas I get :
