1.9.7 (2026-10-23)

🩹 What's new in v1.9.7

WaveFlow starts again on Ubuntu 24.04 and other Linux distributions with compatible glibc versions.


🐧 Linux

  • The Linux downloads start again on Ubuntu 24.04, Linux Mint 22.x, Zorin OS 18, Pop!_OS 24.04 and Debian 13. The 1.9.6 AppImage, .deb, .rpm and AUR package were built on a newer system and required glibc 2.43, so WaveFlow failed at launch on these distributions with version 'GLIBC_2.43' not found. 1.9.7 is built on Ubuntu 24.04 again and requires no newer than glibc 2.39, like 1.9.5. Every release now checks that compatibility floor before publishing. COPR and Flathub were not affected. (#939)

1.9.7 also carries the 1.9.6 playback fix: tracks play all the way to the end before the next one starts.

On Linux, the in-app updater stopped offering 1.9.6 once the compatibility problem was found. AppImage users still on 1.9.5 will therefore update directly to 1.9.7.

If your AppImage already updated to 1.9.6 and no longer starts, download the 1.9.7 AppImage below and replace the old one. Your library and settings are kept.


📦 Recommended install

Use your platform's package manager when one is available, so updates keep flowing through the tool you already use.

Windows

winget install InstaZDLL.WaveFlow

Arch / Manjaro / EndeavourOS / CachyOS

yay -S waveflow-bin
# or: paru -S waveflow-bin

Fedora / RHEL / Rocky / Alma / CentOS Stream

sudo dnf copr enable instazdll/waveflow
sudo dnf install waveflow

Debian / Ubuntu / Mint / Pop!_OS

The Debian package is wave-flow (kebab-case, required by the Debian naming spec — Tauri bundles it that way from the WaveFlow product name).

sudo install -d -m 0755 /etc/apt/keyrings
curl -fsSL https://packages.buildkite.com/instazdll/waveflow/gpgkey \
  | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/waveflow.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/waveflow.gpg] https://packages.buildkite.com/instazdll/waveflow/any/ any main" \
  | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/waveflow.list
sudo apt update && sudo apt install wave-flow

macOS

No Homebrew cask yet — grab the .dmg below. The bundle isn't Apple-signed, so right-click → Open the first time, or run xattr -cr /Applications/WaveFlow.app to clear the quarantine flag.

Standalone download

Everything is also available as a raw bundle below — .AppImage, .deb, .rpm, .exe, .msi, .dmg.
