Minigalaxy version 1.4.2 is now available. For new users, Minigalaxy is a simple GOG client for Linux. Everyone should update to this release, because it addresses a change GOG made in their API which made Minigalaxy unable to load game libraries of users. The download and a breakdown of the changes can be found below.
