@zhennik26 Maybe you could tell us a bit more about what you want to achieve, then we could more easily help you, either by suggesting a supported way to achieve your goal, or adjusting your expectations.

@blackwizard_BE I never managed to fix the issue, so I gave up on X11 apps which is a shame. It would be useful to at least know how to debug this issue but I couldn’t figure it out.

Thank you. Actually, since the type chroot is the default, I don't write it.
And yes, it works with or without sudo.

Regards

This fix worked for me, with Redmi Note 9 Pro. Thanks!

@dln949 The libertine settings app is somewhat fragile at the moment. (Improvement suggestions and PR's are welcomed.)

... an application like mousepad appeared to be installed, but I cannot find the icon for it in the "app drawer".

After installing an application in a Libertine container, it is sometimes necessary to refresh the app drawer to see the new icons. You can do this by swiping down in the opened app drawer.

if I tap on the plus sign and select "Choose Debian package to install", I get this message: "No Debian packages available".

This is the expected behavior. That option is for installing downloaded deb packages. It displays any .deb files that are present in the Downloads folder.
If you know the exact name of the package you want to install, you can use the second button.
I almost exclusively use the third button to search the repositories for the package I am looking for.
But be careful, one stray tap will have you installing an unintended app. And the best course of action is to let the install run its course, before deleting the package and trying again.

@user_profile555 I might not be understanding you correctly: Are you trying to install a .jar file with the libertine-container-manager command line tool? That is not going to work, the install-package subcommand only understands how to deal with .deb packages.

This .jar file, how would you go about running it on Ubuntu Desktop? That might give us an idea as to how you should go about this, if it is possible at all.

@arubislander said in Firefox 2023:

@gdegrez there is no Focal for any of the BQ devices. There was some promising work initiated but other priorities likely took precedence.

Well, I guess that the overwhelming majority of the community thinks that the main interest of UBtouch is for smartphones, whereas I personally think its main advantage is for tablets.
But it is also true that the BQ devices are a rather old hardware.

As a general rule though, if Focal is not selectable during install or as an update channel, that is because it is not available for the designated device.

OK. Good to know.
Thanks.

@arubislander Thank you very much, that was helpful.

@staryvyr said in Issues with Libertine:

A) When I am trying remove a package, for that the installation has not
been completed before (it fails for several reason, e.g. the wifi was
disconnected during install) then
libertine-container-manager remove-package -p <PACKAGE_NAME>
is giving an error message that the package is already installed
(in german).

I avoid the German reprimand and instead it tells me the package is not installed even though the list-apps shows it.

Also starting the package from the command line (as per the documentation) fails. The documentation says:

Run desktop application - Run it from the app menu like any other app. To start a graphical app from the command-line, for example gedit, run this in a terminal:
#ubuntu-app-launch <CONTAINER_ID>_<desktop_file_name>_0.0
ubuntu-app-launch xenial_gedit_0.0

I get the following:
LIST
$ libertine-container-manager list-apps
focal_foxtrotgps_0.0
focal_osmose-emulator_0.0
focal_python3.8_0.0
focal_vim_0.0
RUN
$ ubuntu-app-launch focal_foxtrotgps_0.0
-bash: ubuntu-app-launch: command not found
REMOVE
$ libertine-container-manager remove-package -p focal_foxtrotgps_0.0
libertine-container-manager:219: ERROR: remove_package(): Package 'focal_foxtrotgps_0.0' is not installed.
LIST AGAIN
$ libertine-container-manager list-apps
focal_foxtrotgps_0.0
focal_osmose-emulator_0.0
focal_python3.8_0.0
focal_vim_0.0

@zig Either tap on the green button that says "Get started", or tap on the + icon in the upper right corner of the screen.
Follow the instructions on the screen. Make sure to keep the screen on and not to navigate away from the settings while the container is being created.

Might I ask why you want to install the lubuntu-software-center? As it is not touch enabled, it will probably not be a very pleasant experience to use on a phone.

The Libertine manager under System Settings is not the most user friendly either, but it does allow you to search for packages and install the ones you want from a touch enabled UI at least. It is not great for discovery, I will admit, but if you know what you are looking for, it is fairly easy to find and install.
You can also add PPA's via the user interface it provides.

@deepanshu1409 On 16.04 it was possible to use apt in a libertine container. That seems no longer to be easily possible on 20.04.

But is it not more important that you can achieve your objective of installing a package, rather than using apt specifically for doing so?

You can install debs with libertine-container-manager install-package, at least according to the --help. I have not tried yet myself.

@Ian Wonderful!. Thank you very much.
