Question #697063 on Keryx changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/keryx/+question/697063
john sylvanis gave more information on the question: I downloaded and unzipped keryx_ubuntu_x86.zip on the library computer. Unzipped, got into Win32 directory and clicked the executable. It came up with the interface, with Debian and supported OS, and, or course, I get an error message saying "Please create a project in the plugin's supported OS". But when I get into Ubuntu and change directory into Keryx_Ubuntu_x86/source/ and execute keryx.py, nothing happens. Strange.
