Can't install on Linux Mint 21 #20

Closed edueocara27 closed 2 years ago

edueocara27 commented 2 years ago

I am not able to install on Mint 21. I checked and the problem is apparently nodesource, which does not detect this newer version of Mint.

It's possible to apply a workaround to install nodesource on Mint 21. https://github.com/nodesource/distributions/issues/1430#issuecomment-1214345955 The problem is that even if I manage to install nodesource directly, the Deezer installation simply ignores that nodesource has already been installed, installs it again and gives an error because the workaround was not applied and I don't even know if it's possible to apply.

Any solution?

I don't personally use Mint, so I'm not sure about this specific issue, but if you've already successfully installed Node 14, then you can just remove the nodejs installation from install.sh. Specifically, remove

curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | sudo -E bash -

and nodejs from

sudo apt install -y p7zip-full imagemagick nodejs wget g++ make patch

I could perhaps look into adding a check to see if the correct Node.js version is already installed and skip the install.
