Re: Frescobaldi 4.0.0 has been released!

[Benjamin Tordoff]

Trying out the dmg from GitHub I got some odd problems. It works fine if I run it directly from the terminal, but if I double-click the application, or double-click a .ly file that tries to open the app, I get an immediate crash. I do get some warning when starting from the terminal - could these be the cause?

/Applications % ./Frescobaldi.app/Contents/MacOS/Frescobaldi

qt.qpa.fonts: Populating font family aliases took 149 ms. Replace uses of missing font family "Courier" with one that exists to avoid this cost.

That is brilliant news. I’ve come to rely on Frescobaldi (on Mac) more and more and the future of the project didn’t always look certain. Thank you to everyone who has helped to keep the project alive and get this new release out.

Hey folks

The new release is finally out:
https://github.com/frescobaldi/frescobaldi/releases/tag/v4.0.0

Building the macOS app took quite some time, but now we have an easy way to build Windows and macOS packages.

If you have any problem please check the open issues before creating a new one:
