Hi.
The first: suggestion for manager.io it must include all dependency within the appimage of the program, I have spent more than two hours in trying install your program and I was unable to install it on Ubuntu.
The second: you should provide a .deb and .rpm version for your program it is better to install and more compatible with the system and you must include all dependency within it.
Hello and welcome to the forum @DownloadManagerUser,
Although I like the idea for the free Manager being available on Linux, but maintaining compatibility for all distro is too much work to be economically feasible, especially since each Linux OS install is unique.
Having said that, I think Manager should be supported on Ubuntu and Fedora. Can you confirm that you are using plain vanilla Ubuntu meaning that you have all the built-in components installed? In this case, I think your request would make a lot of sense.
As far as other versions, I think the appimage is good enough for many unsupported distro, for example I can run the appimage just fine from Manjaro – which isn’t officially supported – just by toggling “run as an executable”
If you still face problems, please provide screenshots of the steps you took as well as screenshots of any error messages. It would also help to mention any built-in components that you left out from your OS install.
I installed the downloaded Manager-linux-x64.appimage on a Linux Mint (22.1) distro by using the instructions on appimage.org.
To be complete, open the terminal and first go to the folder containing the downloaded .appimage file.
Then follow the instructions below according to the website appimage.org:
To run an AppImage, simply:
Make it executable:
chmod a+x Manager-linux-x64.AppImage
and run!
./Manager-linux-x64.AppImage
Thanks Ealfardan & ries . Yes, I’m using plain vanilla Ubuntu.
The problem is:
