[Qgis-user] Old Qgis version in Linux Mint

[Richard Duivenvoorde]

Hi Boina,

Other Mint users here?
I've no experience with Mint itself, but would the Flatpak option be an option?
See https://qgis.org/resources/installation-guide/#flatpak

What do you get if you just do 'apt install qgis'?

Or else I would just go to install latest possible QGIS version using apt and instructions here:
https://qgis.org/resources/installation-guide/#debian--ubuntu
(not sure if Mint 22.1 is based on which Debian/Ubuntu, is it noble?)

Not sure why you need the old version (I should go for the newest, the UI is not that changing in QGIS...).
And some version of QGIS is better then nother?
With Flatpak I was able to install 3.42 on a Almalinux stepstone/desktop recently...

Regards,

Richard
