DEB package dpkg installation dependency issue: libappindicator3-1
qwant33 opened this issue · comments
Bug Many DEB install packages have been running into issues with libappindicator3-1.
To Reproduce
- Go to Terminal
- cd to Downloads
- sudo dpkg -i particl-desktop-3.0.0-linux-amd64.deb
- Error:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of particl-desktop:
particl-desktop depends on libappindicator3-1; however:
Package libappindicator3-1 is not installed.
Expected behavior
Expected install. However, many DEB packages have been running into issues with libappindicator3-1 dependencies. Unpacking and repacking the DEB package, replacing dependency libappindicator3-1 with dependency libayatana-appindicator has worked for me on many other DEB packages.
Versions (please complete the following information):
- OS: 5.14.0-kali4-amd64
- Particl DEB: particl-desktop-3.0.0-linux-amd64
Additional context
I keep seeing on forums from a couple of years ago that Debian developers were encouraging this same switch of dependencies. Not sure how many got the word. I fixed IPFS install by using the same unpack, repack method. GH link to overall issue found HERE
Will investigate. Thanks for raising this.
Should be resolved as of v3.3.0
