cannot install on kubuntu 20.04 #3962

Closed ghost closed 1 year ago

ghost commented 1 year ago

when I did

sudo apt-get install balena-etcher-electron

I faced with :

chmod: cannot access '/opt/balena-etcher-electron/chrome-sandbox': No such file or directory

Error in file "/usr/share/applications/org.kde.kdeconnect_open.desktop": "/" is an invalid MIME type ("*" is an unregistered media type)

I even couldnt install.

P.S. I did "'https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/balena/etcher/setup.deb.sh' \

| sudo -E bash" before this and all seemed to be ok.

One important question: how to run after install? Where is the command written?

My main problem is that I couldnt install it on kubuntu.

hi, sorry for the inconvinience apt still gets the 1.7.9 version which does not use the file what fixes this https://github.com/balena-io/etcher/blob/master/after-install.tpl there you see the difference in the path balenaEtcher instead of balena-etcher-electron

Hello,

A quick workaround would be to get the .deb package for the latest stable version on github (1.10.6 and install it with dpkg -i balena-etcher_1.10.6_amd64.deb
