In the past, rummage has usually been available via the command line after installation on many systems, but it is possible that the environment may not expose the command depending on the setup.

On a linux based setup, the most reliable approach is probably going to be something like one of the following ways:

python3 -m rummage

Or, if you have multiple python versions, and the default python is not the one that is exposed as python3, you can usually specify the exact Python version. So assuming I am using Python 3.11, I would use:

python3.11 -m rummage

This all of course assumes everything is installed properly, but I don't have enough information to know whether that is the case or not, so for now, I will just assume it is.

i get this error ImportError: libpcre2-32.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

so i install sudo apt install pcre2-utils

and it work,thx.

Yeah, linux is always a bit of a moving target, so you sometimes you have to figure out what non-python dependencies are missing. Glad you got it working.
