Image for Linux 4.0 upgrade
Hi. I'm using Ubuntu 22.04. I've downloaded the new update and having extracted it, The usual ./setup command fails, saying there's missing libraries!! I'm no expert but have checked out the list given and the only one missing appears to be libpng12-0:i386. This has been mentioned in other install failures. If I'm right ?? can someone direct me to a solution or perhaps I'm barking up the wrong tree altogether! Thanks.

Re: Image for Linux 4.0 upgrade
The KB article hasn't been updated yet for V4, which no longer uses libpng12/libncursesw5. IFL V4 uses the libpng16 and libncursesw6 versions (names will vary depending on the distro).

I emphasize, I'm no expert but it appears that libncursesw6 is installed but there's no sign of libpng16 !

Re: Image for Linux 4.0 upgrade
the ./setup uses tbosdt which is where the dependencies are located. It says ncurses5w but that is now ncurses6w (32 bit version)
If you want to check it, ensure you have upx package installed and from the directory with tbosdt in it:
upx -d tbosdt
ldd tbosdt

Can you let us know when the KB article has been updated?

Re: Image for Linux 4.0 upgrade
The KB article has been updated with the commands for the current versions of Ubuntu, Linux Mint, and Debian. The commands are likely the same for recent prior versions of those distros, but haven't been tested with them yet.
Re: Image for Linux 4.0 upgrade
Thank you. IFL v4 installed in Linux Mint 21.3.
