Krokiet stopped working for me, and on checking the source repo releases page, the developer recommends the windows_krokiet_on_windows_skia_opengl.exe variant over the windows_krokiet_on_linux.exe one.

The skia variant works for me 😄

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Krokiet Scoop manifest now downloads the Windows Skia/OpenGL executable. It uses the executable's new SHA-256 checksum, updates the shortcut target, and changes the autoupdate URL.

qarmin czkawka github releases windows_krokiet_on_windows_skia_opengl opengl Visual C++ Redistributable

💡 Result:

The Windows executable named windows_krokiet_on_windows_skia_opengl.exe is a specific build of the Krokiet application (a component of the Czwawka project) that utilizes the Skia graphics library with an OpenGL backend for rendering [1][2]. Regarding your query about its requirements: 1. Visual C++ Redistributable: Yes, this specific build requires the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable package to be installed on your Windows system [1][3]. This is because it is compiled using MSVC (Microsoft Visual C++), which necessitates these runtime libraries to execute correctly [1][3]. 2. Technical Context: - Rendering Backend: The Skia OpenGL backend provides a different rendering path than the default 'femtovg' renderer used in other builds [4]. It is typically chosen for better visual quality, particularly with text and fonts [4]. - Dependencies: While prebuilt binaries for Czwawka generally aim to be portable and lack mandatory runtime dependencies [5], the MSVC-compiled versions like this one create the specific dependency on the Visual C++ Redistributable [1][3]. If you are choosing between builds, the official documentation suggests that if the Skia/OpenGL version does not work on your system, you may need to try one of the other available builds, such as those using different backends (e.g., Vulkan or the default femtovg) [1][2].

Declare the Visual C++ Redistributable suggestion.

The selected windows_krokiet_on_windows_skia_opengl.exe build depends on Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable. Add the standard VC Redist suggestion so Scoop can offer users the required runtime.
