It would be very nice if you'd repair the install flow or provide us with a handy workaround.

Hi @Trolldemorted

Please, do not use 'apt-get install kimchi'. We have received a lot of bugs related to that. We are in process to have the packages updated with Debian community but it will take some time.

Please, use the packages provided by the community to install on Ubuntu or Debian. You can find them at http://kimchi-project.github.io/kimchi/downloads/

A new release 2.3.1 will be announced next week if you can wait some time to get the newer version.

if we should not use apt-get install kimchi you should get that package removed for the time being.

we tried the .deb packages you have linked before iirc, but we will try again this evening. How is the python-psutil problem handled there?

alinefm commented 7 years ago

As I said, we are working with Debian community to get the packages updated in the official repositories.

I have not seen the psutil error before.

Trolldemorted commented 7 years ago

installing the .deb packages you linked worked, however you have to install ginger (not only gingerbase) to get it to work properly - and ginger is not mentioned on the page you have sent.

Thanks for your quick help!

For the record I tried also to install Kimchi to Ubuntu 16.10 followed all the advice documented in your git site to "install the needed dependencies" but I still could not succeed. Uploaded the log file of all actions tried and responses obtained to next url. At least it seems there are additional dependencies which are causing issues and your current instructions are not sufficient to get a successfull install. Pity. I was looking forward to try it out!
