Seems like I've mistaken that 6.4.8 is the latest stable release.. I'll try to bump the package later. I also need more testing and I'd be happy if someone tests this too on x64-glibc. Building on i5 8th gen spent ~15 minutes. Don't forget to backup your data if you have existing installation.

This package is fucking HARD to build.

@zen0bit The text should be rendered now. but I can't import the database from the file chooser. The import works and it asks to restart the app. However, after restarting the app, it asks the passphrase but it says the passphrase is incorrect. Please try on your side.

I'm assuming this is an upstream issue since I also can't import the same database on Android, CMIIW. Or.. this could be the version mismatch of the app. Meaning: my exported database was from v6.5 beta version on Android and importing to v6.4.10 on desktop causes it to fail. Should I package the beta version right now or just wait until v6.5 is stated as stable? Need Void member to answer ._.

PS: I could be wrong and the passphrase were solely incorrect.
The passphrase was wrong lmao

I updated the .desktop entry to get the best of both native .desktop and Flatpak's .desktop version.
