As a non-Ubuntu Linux user, I have downloaded the Pagico DEB files over the past year and installed and ran them successfully on Siduction (Debian testing) and SolydXK (Debian stable) with no issues.
However, my long-time favourite Linux has been Manjaro, which is Arch-based and, although I have tried several times, I cannot get Pagico to run on Manjaro because of dependency problems.
Have you any plans for a Snap or Flatpak release which could be used on virtually all Linux distributions?
Hi there,
Thank you for reaching out! Unfortunately we don't have plans to support any non-Ubuntu distributions at this point. I am really sorry for the inconvenience!
OK, so now I've got a new Ubuntu laptop. Imagine my annoyance when I see that Pagico is not yet compatible with Ubuntu 18.04. Is there a target date for a fix?
It seems there is a solution for your problem, explained at a post in this forum: "Workaround for using Pagico in latest Ubuntu version"
I'm using Linux Mint, staying with version 18.3, that runs over Ubuntu 14 o 16, I believe... not sure to try this ppa...
I hope it helps you...
Thanks for your help. I found the workaround but, unfortunately, it didn't work for me.
Hi guys,
We are sorry for the delay! We are working on the compatibility issue here and we'll get it out as soon as we can. The reason that we're taking extra time is that we need to rebuild the Ubuntu client due to some of the libraries we used are no longer supported on the latest 18.04.
I apologize for the delay!
OK, thanks for letting us know it's being worked on.
I had a second try at using the fix given above by Francesc with the latest download of Pagico for Ubuntu and it worked!!
Steps were
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xapienz/curl34
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo dpkg -i Pagico_Desktop_x64_r2343.deb
Using dpkg shows up the missing dependencies, but an easy fix is
$ sudo apt --fix-broken install
which downloads and installs the missing items and completes the Pagico installation. Following this, I ran Pagico and successfully connected to my workspace.
I was close to scrapping Ubuntu 18.04.1 for Neptune 5.6 on my laptop, but this second attempt has saved me a load of work.
Thanks are due to the provider of the PPA.
