When I try to install the Debian package I get the error message:
Package libappindicator1 is not installed.
It’s a very old package. Libappindicator3 is included in all newer distributions. In Luban 3 libappindicator3 is used and there it is entered in the dependencies. Is the Luban 4 version really based on such an old package or was there just someone beating about it while packing the Debian package? In this condition I cannot test the new Luban.
Hello friends,
I have the same problem. I am new to Luban and Linux. I got the 4.1.1 and today the 4.1.3 debian 64bit package from your website. I tried to install it on my Chromebook (having Linux support enabled).
Following your GitHub install instructions:
sudo dpkg install snapmaker-luban-{version}-linux-amd64.deb
sudo apt install --fix-broken
I get the same error message:
“The following packages have unmet dependencies:
snapmaker-luban: Depends: libappindicator1 but it is not installable”.
How can I get this missing libappindicator1?
There is nothing apt install --fix-broken can fix, because there is no entry.
When I try to install Luban 3 I get a similar error message:
“The following packages have unmet dependencies:
snapmaker-luban: Depends: libappindicator3-1 but it is not installable”
Does anybody have an idea? My SnapMaker is coming and I don’t know how to make best use of all its 3in1 features without Luban.
Thanks a lot!
Cheers
Got it! Here is the solution. I found a website where I could download the missing dependencies as .deb file. I am not sure, if I am allowed to post URLs here. So just send me a DM and I share the link with you. I needed to install two things: First Libindicator7 and then Libappindicator1. After that I installed the Luban 4.1.3. deb file.
Cheers
I found this solution. This replaces this ancient library with something up-to-date. This means that libindicator7 is no longer required.
“dpkg-deb -R snapmaker-luban-4.1.3-linux-amd64.deb /tmp/snapmaker-deb && sed -i ‘s/libappindicator1/libayatana-appindicator1/g’ /tmp/snapmaker-deb/DEBIAN/control && dpkg-deb -b /tmp/snapmaker-deb snapmaker-fixed.deb”
After this:
“sudo dpkg -i snapmaker-fixed.deb”
