   The developer has another version of the program you could test.   
   It's in a directory on the github page and can be found in the   
   assets section (39 items).   
      
   Name: linux_krokiet_x86_64            <=== ELF executable

   Whether this will work any better for you, is debatable.

   The sense of the tick box seems to be reversed. I kept clicking "scan"   
   and nothing was getting scanned. I unticked my PIC folder and suddenly   
   scan started doing something.   
      
   If you click too many times on files detected as matching, it opens   
   an external image editor. If you click once on a file path in the   
   left pane, the picture is updated. The two pictures placed into   
   that picture, show test articles which are two different frames of a movie,   
   which helps ensure (for a test) that the frames are roughly similar to one   
   another (if you use the slider and turn the match level up or down).   
      
   The fit and finish of the program is annoying, to say the least.   
   But, it's an ambitious program, it runs on Windows and Linux and MacOS,   
   and I suppose it's inevitable that all the variations cause problems.   
   Maybe it should have been written in Java :-)
