Install Ubuntu 16.04 either PPA or gdebi doesn't work

[birchcode]

Tried installing both ways, here is via the gdebi method:

% sudo gdebi Mutate-2.3.deb

yeah your version doesnt have boost 1.55, i made some packages some time ago.
Ill dig up my build vm and reupload the debs.

[mgolisch]

you can try http://buildout.apps.mgolisch.eu/xenial_result/mutate_2.4~precise~NoolsLab.com_amd64.deb

should work on xenial

Works on xenial. Thanks.

hey, anything for x86? i get a wrong architecture error using gdebi

[mgolisch]

no i never build any packages for x86, do people still have non amd64 x86 cpus?

@mgolisch hi, i have a few old computers that i'm converting to linux. was looking for an alfred replacement as i totally love that on osx. i'm a linux noob and have had some trouble compiling packages in the past, so was wary of compiling it myself. i'll give it a try.

@mgolisch I am able to install this on Ubuntu 16.04 however opening preferences results in a Cannot open ini file error without any further information.

Do you have this file https://github.com/qdore/Mutate/blob/master/config/config.ini in Mutate insstalled directory? I am currently on mac so can't give you exact file location. But this is the configuration that mutate is looking for. Try to create one manually if its not already there.

[kleinfreund]

Within ~/.config/Mutate, there is only the file frequence. No other files.

What I needed to do in addition:

git clone https://github.com/qdore/Mutate.git
cd Mutate
cp -R config/* ~/.config/Mutate
chmod -R a+x ~/.config/Mutate/scripts
chmod -R a+w ~/.config/Mutate
sed -i "s|{home}|$HOME|g" ~/.config/Mutate/config.ini

[samundra]

try find . / -name 'Mutate' and check if you have it there.

@kleinfreund Cheers, you got it working I guess.
