Hello, sorry for the inconvenience but the installers got broken

Hi @TurBoss :)
firstly thank you so much for this work here. Probe basic is for me the only solution to a usable linuxcnc installation. So dont feel to bad, i was also a bit stupid to update my installation before wanting to mill something :D.
we are currently working on Debian 12 packages
Hm now im puzzled. Currently i cant find a linuxcnc installation iso with PREEMPT-rt kernel which is based on Debian 11, let alone Debian 12. Why are you working on Debian 12 packages? Can you give me some hints? Im currently on LinuxCNC 2.8 (http://linuxcnc.org/downloads/) which is based upon Debian 10.
Best regards and greetings from Germany hasechris
Hi. ' that is interesting ! Do you use Master branch (development - 2.9) in Debian 12?
All the best Stefan
yes, I have a debian 12 virtual machine to test all the features and just installed linuxcnc from apt
I had to install linuxcnc-uspace + linuxcnc-uspace-dev to get all the requirements
Saludos! from spain
Since debian 12 is being worked on, does the whole thing also work on debian 11?
Thanks
yes but only if you install it from repositories and do a pip install -e .
+ qcompile .

I would not bother with debian 11 it is a stepchild of sorts. easiest to use debian 12 and install linuxcnc from apt and probe basic/qtpyvcp from .deb file for user use. and for future updates, the quickstart page will have updated deb file which are installed over the existing very easy one line update and easy to see the version number currently listed in the installation docs.
@Lcvette @TurBoss
wait WHAT? Why do you suddenly drop support for the "official" LinuxCNC ISO? The ISO uses Debian 10 with LinuxCNC 2.8.4.
Could we please get back to support the LinuxCNC ISO? I imagine most normal users dont bother with a manual Debian configuration and setup and "just want to mill" something. So they use the linuxcnc iso with the assumption "this is the stable build and should work in the normal cnc work condition".
Until now this was just a nuance that you broke the installer for debian 10. Now you suddenly inform us that this is a breaking change and we have to reinstall all of our existing CNC Computers.
Best regards hasechris
hello, sorry for the late reply.
i found this binaries
https://repository.qtpyvcp.com/repo/dev/bin/ https://repository.qtpyvcp.com/repo/pb-py2/bin/
hope they work
Hi @TurBoss,
sadly i could not test your links until now. Sorry that it took me this long.
First thank you for providing the (in your mind) old run files. That enabled me to run the normal probe_basic installer on my LinuxCNC ISO Install version 2.8.4 (which is still up to date as of 2023-05-20).
Sadly an error came up in the middle of the installation. Please see the new mentioned issue (https://github.com/kcjengr/qtpyvcp_conversational_gcode/issues/7) in the conversational repo. This repo want to be installed by the run file.
Workaround for now is to do
pip install git+https://github.com/kcjengr/qtpyvcp_conversational_gcode.git@1b7273b5d227867b76e9cd2d658a414f2935a12a
./ProbeBasic-Installer-py2+3.g231c7ff.run
AND press the ignore Button when the error regarding the conversational repo comes up in the run-file installer
Wohoo! :tada: Now LinuxCNC with probe_basic starts up again. Now i can mill again :-).
Best regards hasechris
