After a significant porting effort, the interface of GMDB2 has been modernized to use GTK+3, and should run on any modern Linux release – as well as Mac installations that have GTK+3 from Homebrew or MacPorts. Anyone using mdbtools in a desktop environment is encouraged to give it a try. If your preferred package manager has dropped support for GMDB2 in the past few years, you are encouraged to point the maintainer to this release, as many obsolete package requirements have been dropped.

The build requirements for Beta 2 are now:

  • mdbtools 0.9.0 or later
  • GTK+ 3.22 or later

Installation:

  • configure --disable-man
  • make
  • sudo make install

The Help menu requires yelp to be installed.

A final release of 0.9.0 will occur if no major bugs are found.
