People who want to use this on Ubuntu 14.04 "Trusty" could try using the development Snap package. I haven't tried this and don't know whether this is fully supported on Trusty, but give it a try:
First install Snap with (requires trusty-updates repository to be enabled):
sudo apt-get install snapd
Then install Peek snap:
sudo snap install peek --edge --devmode
from peek.
Peek is awesome and I'm so happy it works on Ubuntu 14.04.5.
The only tricky part for me, since this was my first time using a snap package, was that the executable was not found. This article helped:
However, the first time you try to run a snap on 14.04, you might experience the error “The command cannot be found”. This is due to the fact that “/snap/bin” has not been added to the $PATH environment variable. To do so, a script called “apps-bin-path.sh” has been added to /etc/profile.d. It will automatically run after you reboot or re-login and add snaps launchers to your path. When this is done, snaps should launch as expected
So, running $ /snap/bin/peek
worked for me.

My first reaction on this was that I won't fix it, since I have no interest in doing workarounds for an old version that is hard to test for me. But the commit that raised the required version was 5ca016b , and the reason stated here would be easy to work around. Not really a blocker.
I will see if this really is the only place I used a Gtk 3.14 function. If it is I will try to get back to 3.10 as a minimum. If I provide you a test build, could you try it?

yep, i will try it if you can build one. just paste the link here.

@csrgxtu Took me longer to find the time due to the year suddenly ending and everybody being surprised by it :)
But here we go, a special build just for you: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4YQhIuWC-gcRDc5Q09ySmthVW8
Can you try whether this works for you?

i am using ubuntu 14.04, and peek depends on libgtk-3-0, my current window environment is lower than that.

Ok, I gave that a try, but it turns out to require more changes than I am comfortable with. Trusty is out of luck sorry.

@phw when I try
sudo snap install peek --edge --devmode
I get this warning
error: This revision of snap "peek" was published using classic confinement and
thus may perform arbitrary system changes outside of the security
sandbox that snaps are usually confined to, which may put your system at
risk.
If you understand and want to proceed repeat the command including
--classic.
Hesitatingly when I try
sudo snap install peek --edge --devmode --classic
snap tells me
error: cannot install "peek": cannot use classic and devmode flags together
I didn't tried removing devmode
flag with only classic
flag. Should I? Kindly suggest
from peek.
Yes, you should :) This changed recently
from peek.
Unfortunately, I'm having some trouble running the classic snap:
/snap/peek/222/command-peek.wrapper: 2: exec: desktop-launch: not found
This issue does is not isolated to peek, it seems to affect other classic snaps as well

@Kukanani First, please don't comment on old closed threads, when new issues arise just open a new issue. I don't look at closed threads usually.
For your issue: Snap handling is currently changing a lot as I want to get this finally released to the stable channel. At the moment please try installing with:
sudo snap install peek --beta
Would be great if you could leave feedback on #84 with your experience using it.
