Description

When using Keepass 2 in Linux Mint 22 Wilma Cinnamon edition on a laptop with an OLED screen, the fonts are extremely small and can't be adjusted. This was not an issue with Mint 21.3 Virginia Cinnamon, which I just tested again.

Also in the software store, you are still providing KeePass 2 2.47 vs. 2.57 update, which is the newer version.

Can you please fix both of these issues?

Thanks

Research direction

Start by reproducing the font-size behavior in Linux Mint 22 Wilma Cinnamon and compare it with Mint 21.3 Virginia. Then inspect how Software Manager obtains and displays the KeePass version, using the issue screenshots as reference. Done means font sizing can be adjusted and the listing offers KeePass 2.57 rather than 2.47.
