What is Flameshot?<\/h2>\n

Flameshot is a free and open source tool that is used for taking screenshots and making annotations. It is only available for Linux. The tool has an interactive Graphic User Interface (GUI) that has a list of controls that a user can choose from to edit the screenshot. The drawing tools in Flameshot include blur, pencil, line, undo\/redo circle rectangle, and more.<\/p>\n

In today\u2019s tutorial, we will demonstrate the process of installing Flameshot on our machine. The system we are using for installation has Manjaro Linux 20 installed on it. Manjaro Linux is a free and open source distribution of Linux that is highly popular among the tech community for its high efficiency and stability. It is a great distribution to begin with if you are switching from Windows to Linux.<\/p>\n

Without any further ado, let\u2019s get started with installing the application on our system. We will install the application using the command line interface of Manjaro Linux using a few easy to follow commands.<\/p>\n

Installation Guide:<\/h2>\n

Following are the steps involved in installing Flameshot on Manjaro Linux 20:<\/p>\n

Step 1: Install snapd<\/h3>\n

Before installing Flameshot, we first need to install snapd. It can be done by running the following command:<\/p>\n

sudo pacman -S snapd<\/pre>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 2: Enable snapd.socket<\/h3>\n
Once snapd is successfully installed, we will enable the systemd unit that deals with the management of the main snap communication socket. It will be done after running the following command:<\/p>\n
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket<\/pre>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Enable classic support<\/h3>\n
In this step, we will create a symbolic link between \/var\/lib\/snapd\/snap and \/snap to enable classic support. Execute the following command to do so:<\/p>\n
sudo ln -s \/var\/lib\/snapd\/snap \/snap<\/pre>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 4: Install the application<\/h3>\n
This is the step in which we will finally install the Flameshot application. Issue the following command to do that:<\/p>\n
sudo snap install flameshot<\/pre>\n
<\/p>\n
This is how the interface will appear when Flameshot is being installed:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
As you can see, Flameshot took more than 13 minutes to get installed on our system. It may take lesser time on your system, depending on your internet connection and system efficiency.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 5: Verify Installation<\/h3>\n
We have reached the final step in which we will verify the installation. To check if the application has been successfully installed, go to the Start screen and locate the application we just installed. If you are able to find and run it, that means your application\u2019s installation process has been a success. Congratulations!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Now you can start using the application to take screenshots and edit them with ease.<\/p>\n
