Rapid Photo Downloader install. [Solved]

[yaransk]

Hi all,

I'm having trouble trying to install Rapid Photo Downloader in MX linux.

I made all suggested steps, RPD appears on packaging manager, but, it is not possible to launch it.

Does anybody know how to solve it?

Thanks in advance.

I have installed Geeqie, as an example, or Darktable, wtthout any problem.

[Jerry3904]

I just installed it on my fluxbox laptop using a terminal and it runs fine, so I'm a bit confused.

Try to launch it in the terminal and let's see if we get some info.

Code: Select all

rapid-photo-downloader

[yaransk]

No way.

There is an ¡ sign in red when i try to launch it from application manager.

[Jerry3904]

Did you try it in a terminal with code posted above?

[yaransk]

I tried.

I am a bit lost on terminal.

I tried rapid-photo-downloader[\code] and did not launch.

Is that OK or am I missing something?

[Jerry3904]

It also launches for me using the logo key and starting to type in the name.

You may want to purge it and reinstall

Code: Select all

sudo apt purge rapid-photo-downloader

Code: Select all

sudo apt install rapid-photo-downloader

I just downloaded / installed it and it works fine with XFCE, Since we now have two confirmations that it works, I think that you should use Repo Manager in MX Tools to switch your main repository to either Alblasserdam, The Netherlands, or Milan, Italy. Both of which are owned and operated by the MX team. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, we have discovered that some of the mirror sites are not properly maintained. After you have made the switch, log out / log in or reboot and try your download again.
