Pinta stable builds PPA

[Matteo]

About what's written in launchpad (https://launchpad.net/~pinta-maintainers/+archive/ubuntu/pinta-stable):

"
Note: this PPA only provides GTK2 builds of Pinta (1.7.x) and is no longer updated for Pinta 2.0 and later. Installing the flatpak or snap package is recommended instead.
"

Just why? :(, I personally hate flatpak and snap and uninstalled them a long time ago because I don't want to depend on them, I loved being able to install Pinta through apt after adding the PPA

There is some work needed to update the PPA packaging for Pinta 2.0 due to its dependency changes. In particular, instead of mono,  dotnet-runtime-6.0 / dotnet-sdk-6.0 are needed which is not in the default Ubuntu repositories, and instead comes from Microsoft's PPA (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install/linux-ubuntu).  From https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/BuildingASourcePackage#Dependencies, it sounds like it may not even be possible to do that from Launchpad's build system

I'm not an expert on .deb packaging though, so contributions in this area would be very welcome! For the time being though, that message is there so that users are aware that more recent builds can be found elsewhere.

Hello here could you support the lasr LTS version please 22.04 on stable.

also, any chance to get gtk3 or gtk4 now ?
Because GTK it's a bit unsupported yet

[Fr_Dae “Dae”]

Oh, and if you're too lazy to update each version, just stick to the LTS, there are fewer of them and it's enough.
