Flatpak installation error on lubuntu + solution #23

Closed antoninofurnari closed 4 years ago

antoninofurnari commented 4 years ago

Hello,

Trying to install the flatpak bundle on a fresh lubuntu installation, when receiving the error

error: The application uk.ac.bris.epic.narrator/x86_64/master requires the runtime org.gnome.Platform/x86_64/3.32 which was not found

The suggested solution, to run

flatpak install flathub org.gnome.Sdk//3.32 flatpak install flathub org.gnome.Platform//3.32

Did not work for me. I had to run

flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

To add flathub. Then directly:

flatpak install epic_narrator.flatpak

Best, Antonino

Thanks Antonino, the problem was indeed that the suggested solution assumes the flathub repo is installed, nice catch.

I updated the README to include your magic line.

By the way, I updated GTK's version from 3.32 to 3.36 since 3.32 reached EOL, thus this problem should not reappear once we upload the new bundle
