No confusion here, just exercising my choice to not use a snap package. The fact is I don't use the software centre at all on Xubuntu so I don't even see the newer version...
Code:
apt-cache policy keepassxc
keepassxc:
Installed: 2.4.3+dfsg.1-1build1
Candidate: 2.4.3+dfsg.1-1build1
Version table:
*** 2.4.3+dfsg.1-1build1 500
500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal/universe amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
If removing the 2.4.3 version of keepassxc from the software centre involves removing it from the repositories, then I'd end up having to compile from source and manually update etc.
As for the "issues" you mention that I am not seeing here... Can you supply a link to a launchpad bug report so I can better understand your complaints on the older version? I really don't know what menu items/icons are "duplicated" except for the stock/default key icon on title entries in a database ... See first attachment.
For an example of the title entries with custom icons set ... see second attachment.
...and has bugs like menu item has the same icon for different functions.
I cannot see any example within keepassxc where there are "duplicate" menu items except the key icon in a database. This is not a bug if it is what you are referring to, it is a "default" icon; the user has to either choose an icon from the default set from the icon tab within an entry or can supply a custom icon and set it within the icon tab ... see third attachment for where I go to set custom icons on a database entry (this example is currently set as the default icon, the "custom" option is at the bottom of the screenshot).
It would be easier to help you if you could link to a bug report for the issues you are having or even explain more fully as to what you think is a bug in the older version. Removing the older version would severely impact many users.
Feel free to ignore the version you don't want. That's your choice.
