It would be great if this package can be validated and pushed to Core/Backports repo.

Installing in Mageia 7 from backports_testing.
It works fine.
Dialog window for saving is not translated. I don't know if it is because of LXQt, my installation or ksnip itself.
Great job, David.

MGA7-64 Plasma on Lenovo B50
No installation issues.
At CLI:
$ ksnip 
Unable to find any translation files.
qt.qpa.xcb: QXcbConnection: XCB error: 3 (BadWindow), sequence: 9365, resource id: 33554672, major code: 40 (TranslateCoords), minor code: 0
Image Saved: Saved to /home/tester7/Pictures/ksniptest.png
qt.qpa.xcb: QXcbConnection: XCB error: 3 (BadWindow), sequence: 12769, resource id: 33554677, major code: 40 (TranslateCoords), minor code: 0

My installation is in English, so I wonder why the warning for translation files shows up.
But I could ccapture a screenshot, added a line with the pen an added a text box.
Works OK.
I don't know whether the language issue reported above is a blocking factor, otherwise itis good to go for me.

MGA7-64 Plasma on i5-2500, US-English system.

No installation issues for me, either. I too get the translations message when I run from the command line, but no errors show if I run it from the Plasma menu. The translation message appears to be more informational than anything else.

I was able to capture an image, added an arrow, cropped the image, added an opaque rectangle, saved the image. No problems noted. It looks like it could be a useful tool, once mastered.

I think this is OK for a backport without the translation files, as backports do not require the same level of all-system compatibility as say, updates. It doesn't look like it would break anybody's system.

But, the translatioons should be added if at all possible to Cauldron, if they are not there already. Our non-English-speaking users should be able to use this tool, too.

Giving this the OK, and validating.
