Hello Linux Geeksters. As you may know, Fotoxx is an open source photo editing program, working on Linux. It has support for the most important image formats, including JPEG, BMP, PNG, TIFF and RAW. Fotoxx is mostly used for cropping, resizing or retouching photos, without using layers, like Photoshop.
The latest version available is Fotoxx 14.05, which has been released a while ago, having support only for Ubuntu 14.04 and derivatives. For information about this release, see the official changelog.
In this article I will show you how to install Fotoxx 14.05 on Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr, Linux Mint 17 Qiana, Elementary OS 0.3 Isis and Pinguy OS 14.04.
Because it is available via PPA, installing Fotoxx 14.05 on Ubuntu 14.04 and derivatives is easy. All you have to do is add the PPA to your system, update the local repository index and install the fotoxx package. Like this:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:dhor/myway
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install fotoxx
Optional, to remove fotoxx do:
$ sudo apt-get remove fotoxx
