Bugzilla – Bug 1216239
mcomix 2.1.0 doesn't launch, it's fixed upstream in mcomix 2.3.0 but old version is still in tumbleweed main repository

Overview: Mcomix is stuck on version 2.1.0 in tumbleweed main repository. There was python pillow update to a newer version and mcomix 2.1.0 checks required versions as strings and as a result 10.0.1 is not enough for 6.0.0 required. The bug is fixed upstream in mcomix 2.3.0 but it's not in the main tumbleweed repository. Actual results: Application doesn't start, here's terminal output: $ mcomix (mcomix:17210): dbind-WARNING **: 13:21:35.096: AT-SPI: Error retrieving accessibility bus address: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.a11y.Bus was not provided by any .service files 13:21:35 [MainThread] ERROR: You don't have the required version of the Python Imaging Library Fork (Pillow) installed. 13:21:35 [MainThread] ERROR: Installed Pillow version is: 10.0.1 13:21:35 [MainThread] ERROR: Required Pillow version is: 6.0.0 or higher Expected results: Application should start normally.
