Kritas månadsuppdatering - utgåva 20
Welcome to the @Krita-promo team's October 2024 development and community update.
Utvecklingsrapport
Android-only Krita 5.2.8 Hotfix Release
Krita 5.2.6 was reported to crash on startup on devices running Android 14 or later. This was caused by issues with an SDK update required for release on the Play Store, so a temporary 5.2.7 release reverting it was available from the downloads page only.
However, the issue has now been resolved and 5.2.8 is rolling out on the Play Store. Note that 5.2.8 raises the minimum supported Android version to Android 7.0 (Nougat).
Community Bug Hunt Started
The development team has declared a "Bug Hunt Month" running through November, and needs the community's help to decide what to do with each and every one of the hundreds of open bug reports on the bug tracker. Which reports are valid and need to be fixed? Which ones need more info or are already resolved?
Read the bug hunting guide and join in on the bug hunt thread on the Krita-Artists forum.
