libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 dependency not available for download from apt (Ubuntu 24.04 LTS) #1230

Open yesseruser opened 2 weeks ago

Describe the bug

The modrinth-app package (downloaded from website) requires an old dependency libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37. This dependency cannot be downloaded from apt.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Make sure you are on Ubuntu version 24.04
  2. Download modrinth-app deb file, install it using dpgk and run modrinth-app in terminal, or dowload the appimage and try running it via terminal (to see console output)
  3. Observe the app not starting

Expected behavior

The app should start without those problems, or should use a newer version of this package that's available on apt.

System information

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, Modrinth app 0.7.1

Is it not being on apt a modrinth problem?

blryface commented 1 week ago

Wait no I see the last part now, I think this is a Tauri issue but idk

same here: Ubutnu 24.04

4.1 incompatible with 4.0 ... yikes and this problem is appearing for a lot of apps

libwebkit2gtk-4.1-dev can be installed but modrinth-app_0.7.1_amd64.deb depends on version 4.0. And unfortunately libwebkit2gtk-4.0-x isn't available as a package.

I know 4.0 can be downloaded from Jammy by adjusting apt sources but I'm going to wait for a newer release of Modrinth instead
