Downloads

Shutter is available for any major GNU/Linux distribution and can be installed using your package manager. If you want to upgrade to the latest release, you can find installation instructions in our download section.

Ubuntu PPA repository (recommended):

We are using Launchpad to distribute the different versions of Shutter. If you’re on Ubuntu (versions 8.04 to 10.10 are supported), it’s preferred that you install this way because installing is easier, and you’ll be automatically notified of available updates.

A detailed guide on installing from the PPA is available here, though you can also install using these directions:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:shutter/ppa
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install shutter

Ubuntu packages:

If you don’t want to add the repository but install from packages, here they are:

Ubuntu 10.10 “Maverick Meerkat”: Shutter

Ubuntu 10.04 “Lucid Lynx”: libnet-dbus-glib-perl (32bit, 64bit) and Shutter

Ubuntu 9.10 “Karmic Koala”: Shutter

Ubuntu 8.04 “Hardy Heron”: gtkimageview (32bit, 64bit, or netbook), libgtk2-imageview-perl (32bit, 64bit, or netbook), libgoo-canvas-perl (32bit, 64bit, or netbook) and Shutter

No longer supported:

Ubuntu 9.04 “Jaunty Jackalope”: libgoo-canvas-perl (32bit, 64bit, or netbook) and Shutter

Ubuntu 8.10 “Intrepid Ibex”: libgoo-canvas-perl (32bit, 64bit, or netbook) and Shutter

Ubuntu 7.10 “Gutsy Gibbon”: gtkimageview (32bit or 64bit), libgtk2-imageview-perl (32bit or 64bit), libgoo-canvas-perl (32bit or 64bit) and Shutter

    Allen :
    I’m of the opinion that poople can use shutter without the optional packages.

    In the latest version it is not needed to comment the canvas out manually.

    Maybe i don’t get the point here.
    Do you think there shouldn’t be any optional modules because it is useless to start Shutter without important parts like the drawing tool for example?

    I can’t install those three optional packages in my Debian etch, when I install original shutter it response can’t find the canvas module so I disable the canvas by myself. Unfortunately I can’t use the drawing tool.

      Yes, and that should be the case – Shutter detects that its missing and disables it.

      Can you please re-enable it in the code, get the error message it gives, and report the bug please?

    bob :

    Yeah the fedora link ONLY has then 32 bit versions of those packages, is there anyway I can find 64 bit ones?

    There are some new 64bit fedora packages.

    I’ve already installed perl and perl-modules, but the issue still exists.

    BTW, shutter version: 0.70.1~ppa2

    @Ubuntu Lulu

    We tried installing shutter on 64bit and 32bit jaunty, but it installed fine. Could you please open a new report on https://bugs.launchpad.net/shutter/+filebug, and attach the terminal log of sudo apt-get install shutter? Thanks

    Tried above method, synaptic package manager, and terminal installation. Can’t not install to Jaunty Jackalope. I believe the deal is that the ‘base’on my system is newer than the one I’m trying to install.

    @JauntyJack
    How did you try to install Shutter? Using the PPA? Installing the Ubuntu packages above?
    I’ve set up a fresh Jaunty install and both worked for me.

    Have Jaunty. Can’t install Shutter due to ‘libgoo…’ won’t install because ‘perl-base’ is wrong. ?

    @Nelson
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/perl/+bug/292702 exactly describes your problem.
    Could you please check if the packages perl and perl-modules are installed (and install them if they are not):
    Enter terminal: sudo apt-get install perl perl-modules

    Please let me know if the problem still exists.
