Do we have LinuxMint users here? I know lots of you are on Ubuntu...

After beating my head against this for quite a while, I now have daily
builds in our PPA (ppa:subsurface/subsurface-daily) that should work the
way /I/ think they should work¹. And I'm planning to make "official"
packages like this available once 4.3 is out in pps:subsurface/subsurface.

I'd really appreciate if people could test these and make sure there
aren't any more gotchas hidden in some corners. On Ubuntu I still
sometimes have issues with the shortcut keys not working. But Miika says
this works fine now for him. On LinuxMint I have no such problems.

I have only tested these in VMs, I haven't tried downloading from dive
computers, I haven't excercised a lot of the features.

Thanks

¹these packages no longer depend on getting the three "challenging"
dependencies (libmarble, libgit2, libdivecomputer) from the OS. They
include our own libssrfmarble.so that is hacked quite a bit to strip away
all the overhead that we don't use, and the Subsurface binary inside is
statically linked against libgit2 (plus dependencies) and the
Subsurface-testing branch of libdivecomputer.
