To use latest version of Picasa on Linux, Linux users can use Wine and install Picasa for Windows. On April 20, 2012, Google announced that they were deprecating Picasa for Linux and will no longer maintain it for Linux. Currently, Google has only officially offered Picasa 3.0 Beta for Linux. Google has announced that there will be no Linux version for 3.5. It is not a native Linux program but an adapted Windows version that uses the Wine libraries. Since June 2006, Linux versions have become available as free downloads for most distributions of the Linux operating system.

Picasa was a cross-platform image organizer and image viewer for organizing and editing digital photos, integrated with a now defunct photo-sharing website, originally created by a company named Lifescape (which at that time was incubated by Idealab) in 2002.
