      From: none@nowhere.net              I have always used a program called Dispcal to do color calibrations of       my monitors. I had it installed and running before my upgrade to 22.04.        So, after the upgrade, first tried installing it from the software       center and had a bunch of unmet dependencies. After a little research,       it was suggested to install via flatpak instead, which I did today.       After a little detective work and adding a file, I was finally able to       save it to favorites for easy access from the dock (I guess you can't       natively save flatpak apps to the dock normally?). Anyway, now I am       unable to install the "executables" that the program needs. It says       specifically where to unzip the files (into the bin folder), but no       matter what I try, the program Dispcal won't see these Angyll       executables. I've placed the Angyll folder in home, /, all sorts of       places and it's like it's invisible to Dispcal. I've even tried       removing the executables within the unzipped bin folder and placing them       in various places, but the program still won't see them. This Angyll       zip is what is recommended for Linux. Before I go to the Dispcal forum,       register, and post, I would welcome any thoughts here. Seems like it       may be a permissions problem of sorts, but I don't know. I also tried       placing the Agyll folder and even its contents within the flatpak       folder, but still invisible to the program. Thanks in advance. I DID       have trouble installing this program in prior Ubuntu versions, probably       for similar reasons, but its been so long ago that all I remember was       the installation was not easy.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
