First of all, my congratulations on the effort put into writing this software.
As I am a mountainer in Archlinux distribution and I noticed that the banksagui package is not yet in this distribution, so I did a very preliminary fitting how this software will behave on this system.
So to the point.
What has been tested:
- the package, after unpacking and supplementing the dependencies, surprisingly started and worked stably. It has not been tested long or thoroughly.
Errors noticed during the start, I don't know if it's useful to someone as I'm posting this:

QFSFileEngine::open: No file name specified- the full screen "F11" button does not work. I also did not find anywhere in the program how to make full screen.
- very bad checkerboard size scaling, toolbar, string "HUMAN / Computer", look there I was putted screen https://ibb.co/4PNTkPV
This is what the program looks like on a 14" laptop screen. I haven't found anywhere an option to adjust the size of some things so that the chessboard is much larger and not so miniature. Yes, you can reduce the analysis window, but it doesn't give much. On the screen it is already reduced compared to the default screen after the first system startup.
Regarding the AUR (GIT).
1. Is the only source/version available for building a package:
https://banksiagui.com/dl/BanksiaGui-0.58-linux64.zip ?
2. Where can I found dependencies list?
3. Is someone already doing a Polish translation? If not, then I can try to do it.
No other questions for now. Nice job guys. Fix the screen scaling on smaller monitors than 24" and it will be great.
If you have any questions about how the program behaves in Archlinux, feel free to ask.
