Install Affinity via Python Installer
The Python installer requires Qt6 prior to running the script, but willl give you the latest affinity version.
- Pacman -
sudo pacman -S python-pyqt6 - DNF -
sudo dnf install python3-pyqt6 python3-pyqt6-svg- On some RHEL binary distros they won’t have these directly in the repos, so you will instead have to install them via pip.
pip3 install pyqt6pip3 install pyqt6
- DEB -
sudo apt install python3-pyqt6.qtsvg
Then run curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ryzendew/AffinityOnLinux/refs/heads/main/AffinityScripts/AffinityLinuxInstaller.py | python3 in the terminal.
