Debian Stretch compatibility #3

Closed eguchek closed 3 years ago

eguchek commented 3 years ago

Instruction for Debian at Download page says it works for Stretch, but looks like only Buster supported. Installation on Stretch fails with the following dependency issues:

$ sudo apt install et
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 et : Depends: libcurl4 (>= 7.16.2) but it is not installable
      Depends: libstdc++6 (>= 7) but 6.3.0-18+deb9u1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Is there a way to install et on Stretch?

The latest eternal terminal requires cmake 3.10.

Is there a reason you aren't on buster?

You can build et from source on stretch but you will need to build a newer cmake from source as well.

Got it. I believe it make sense to fix the text on download page. And thanks for a great tool!
