OpenTodoList 3.45.2 Has Been Released

Hi everyone,

While work on the next release of OpenTodoList continues, we’d still like to push out another bugfix release to you. This mainly is important for users of the Snap and AppImage editions of the app on Linux.

Changelog

rpdev/opentodolist#633: Cannot connect to server with Snap Edition

In the previous release of the app, we updated to a new version of the underlying Qt toolkit the app is built upon.

Qt now requires OpenSSL v3 - however, we didn’t deploy this version of OpenSSL with the app! In the Snap edition, this is fatal, because Snaps run in isolation and cannot access any system libraries… But also the AppImage version of the app (from which the Snap one is build) is affected! AppImages can in fact access system libraries, but users that are on an older Linux distribution might not yet have the new OpenSSL available 😱

We fix both of this by including the proper OpenSSL libraries with the app, so access to secure servers should work again!

Downloads

Known Issues

There is a minor known regression with the Qt6 based build of the app when running on Linux with Wayland. Reordering items via drag and drop works, but you sometimes have to click somewhere (e.g. the tool bar) to re-enable hover for the items after such a drag and drop operation. This has been reported as a bug against Qt in their bugtracker. Usually, you can start the app passing it the -platform xcb option to force using X11/XWayland (which does not show the same symptoms).
