Installation

Requirements

Linux

If you use Snap, Flatpak or Appimage, you need to only install ffmpeg if you want to use Similar Videos tool.

For Czkawka GUI the lowest supported version of GTK is 3.24 which is the only required dependency(of course on Ubuntu, different distributions will probably require a little different set of dependences).
In app exists Similar Video tool which require FFmpeg to work, but is completely optional and without it, only warning would be printed when trying to use this tool without installed ffmpeg.
Broken files finder by default don't check for music files, but it is possible to enable this feature and that require to have alsa lib installed(on Ubuntu this is libasound2-dev package)

Warning Main Czkawka GUI dependency - GTK 4 is only available on newer systems like e.g. Ubuntu 22.04, so if you have problems with running app on older systems, you may like to use older Czkawka versions, upgrade OS or install flatpak package which use its own set of dependencies.

Ubuntu/Debian/Linux Mint

sudo apt install libgtk-4-dev ffmpeg

Fedora/Rocky Linux

sudo yum install gtk4-devel glib2-devel
sudo dnf -y install https://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm
sudo dnf -y install https://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm
sudo dnf -y install ffmpeg

Void Linux (CLI only)

sudo xbps-install gcc pkg-config ffmpeg

macOS

Currently, you need to manually install GTK 4 libraries, FFmpeg and the Adwaita theme, because they are dynamically loaded from the OS.
One very straight-forward way to do this is by using Homebrew.
Installation in the terminal:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
brew install gtk4 adwaita-icon-theme ffmpeg librsvg libheif

After that, go to the location where you downloaded Czkawka and add the executable permission to this file.

chmod +x mac_czkawka_gui

At the end execute it:

./mac_czkawka_gui

Warning
Prebuilt binaries are available only for x86_64, so if you use ARM machine like e.g. Mac M1, you need to compile manually app.

There is also a way to use x86_64 binaries on ARM, but this requires to install special version of required libraries probably via:

arch -x86_64 /usr/local/bin/brew install gtk4 adwaita-icon-theme ffmpeg librsvg libheif

Sadly this doesn't work for all users, so feel free to update this part of documentation(look at qarmin#689 and qarmin#637 for more info)

Windows

By default, all needed libraries are bundled with the app, inside windows_czkawka_gui.zip, but if you compile the app or just move czkawka_gui.exe, then you will need to install the GTK 4 runtime from here.

FFmpeg to be able to use Similar Videos, you can download and install from this link.

Installation

Precompiled binaries

Ready-to-go executables for Linux, Windows and macOS are available here.
If the app does not run when clicking the launcher, run it through a terminal.
You don't need to have any additional libraries for CLI Czkawka.

Nightly Builds

Artifacts from each commit can be downloaded here

Appimage

Appimage files are available in release page - GitHub releases
Available are 2 versions of Appimage:

  • default - which bundle gtk theme
  • alternative - which don't include any gtk specific libraries

Cargo

The easiest method to install Czkawka is using the cargo command. To compile it, you need to get all the requirements from the compilation section.

cargo install czkawka_gui

You can update the package with the same command.

Snap
