Install in Q4OS - 32 bit #167

Open PeterLinu opened 1 year ago

PeterLinu commented 1 year ago

I want to use Warpinator on Q4OS - 32 bit however all attempts at installation has ended in tears. What do I need to do? Terminal code would be my preferred option.

There's a flatpak version you could maybe try.

Not familiar with that distribution but from what I gathered it's based on Debian stable/bullseye, which is the same as Mint's debian edition, you could try this package: http://packages.linuxmint.com/pool/backport/w/warpinator/warpinator_1.4.5+elsie_all.deb

You'd need to ensure you have all your dependencies met: https://github.com/linuxmint/warpinator/blob/master/debian/control#L22-L37.

No guarantees.. I don't know what if any peculiarities that distro might have but it's an option.

Michael, the deb file did not work. In fact I had tried it after downloading it from the flatpak website some days ago. I have little or no coding skills and wouldn't even know where to look so I think I'll revert to USB transfer until I receive another note from you saying that you've fixed it. Thanx in advance,

So far there's nothing to fix. You've given me nothing to work with. If it won't install, run run:

If it fails to install, send me the log - from a terminal,

sudo dpkg -i <.deb file name>

Don't try to install it by double-clicking it from a file manager.
