False premises, not for Linux, and no installable package?

Hi,

The description is incomplete, and without something that seems to be implied but is never written, it doesn’t work. It would be better if those things would be written at the top, in large bold red letters or something, „WARNING: LARCH’S VOMIT“, err, I mean, whatever the implied thing is. :)

Am I right in guessing that this requires a separately set up full Windows installation? (E.g. in a VM.)
And that it doesn’t use Wine, nor include or create a VM with Windows itself?
Because that would be such an unwritten thing that should maybe be mentioned! And not read between the lines.

Secondly, am I correct in guessing that this is for Ubuntu, and not Linux?
The groups “libvirt” or “kvm” are not included in the standard set of groups available on most Linux systems.
Also, there seems to be no options to use /usr/local/or /opt/, and the only options seems to be, to install into the user directory (unusual and not a good idea), or to completely wreck the system by polluting /usr/, which should never ever be done on any system, ever.
A proper package (.deb, .ebuild, .rpm, etc) seems to not be available, nor a ppa/overlay/….
It seems the thing was written for Windows, where such things (like dumping stuff into random places) are acceptable, and not Linux, where one uses a package manager and places the files in the correct places.

Can you add the above info and make the thing actually installable on Linux and actually be a Linux something.
(We already got enough things that were made by people coming over from Windows, deliberately ignoring that Linux is not Windows, and continuing to do the same they did on Windows. Like Steam, all that containerization cancer (Snap, Flatpak, etc), and of course everything by Microsoft Poettering. I don’t think you intended to feed into that, and it probably just is quite the unfinished project. ;)
