I just tried to download RackFree-2.6.3-lin-x64.zip and then ran: unzip RackFree-2.6.3-lin-x64.zip
. The extracted Rack2Free/Rack
binary is executable by all users.
Alain, like probably others, probably just double-clicked the zip file, and it opened in some semi-crappy unarchiver, and then dragged the folder out, or the unarchiver extracted it badly.
Andrew probably just assumes that Linux users who install from zip know what they’re doing, and do it in a terminal. The Linux version could really do with a proper installer like the Windows and Mac versions, it’s not that hard to make one. Or a deb (and maybe RPM) repository, with instructions for how people can add it, so that required dependencies are automatically installed, and the package can be seemlessly updated.
Yeah, weird that it’s not listed under System Requirements on the download page.
@alainherbuel You probably just install it from the terminal, by running: sudo apt-get install zenity
Also weird that it is not listed on either the manual or download pages. Running on Linux really is left to the knowledgable it seems.
The solution is given further above. Run the following in a terminal: sudo apt-get install libjack0
I recommend you read this entire topic from the top, where other people have run into similar problems as you have.
