Hello there,
Any improvements made in providing ability for Ubuntu users to
upgrade to
later versions? I'm still stuck in--
Kexi Version 2.8.5
Hi
I am sorry that ubuntu offers no such support for free software.
Upgrading the OS can be an option.
Or requesting support from ubuntu or someone who can develop a
backport.
This can be requested on an ubuntu forum.
Hi,
A modern way of distributing software may help us soon:
http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/04/ubuntu-16-04-lts-snap-packages
Looks wonderful-- I am really looking forward to the
day when I'll be able to upgrade kexi versions. The
version I have right now is so dysfunctional. Any time
the mouse crosses from the left side of the screen into
the left side of the table, it makes the table jump to
the top. This is endlessly frustrating and a huge waste
of time. Say I am working in row #750, the mouse moves
across the left border of the table and all of a sudden
the table jumps to row#1. If there is any fix for this,
please advise.
All this was long ago fixed.
My advice is to upgrade the OS or install another copy
in a virtual machine or different computer. Regardless of
availability of the Snap packages, staying with outdated
software on LTS platforms will be always a compromise. It's
not a problem for apps that do not evolve much anymore but
Kexi is actively developed and users are hungry for features :)
We'll be looking for a way when practically every week new
updates appear for Kexi.
There are so many software packages which update regularly
every week with the Ubuntu update manager-- it happens
automatically. If Kexi could be incorporated into this
feature, it would be great.
OK. Do you mean official packages from Canonical or do you have
unofficial repositories added?
Either would be perfectly fine.
As for upgrading the OS, the Final Version of the new Ubuntu
LTS 16.04 is coming out on April 21. My current LTS 14.04 is
in all other regards functioning wonderfully, and I would
have no other reason to upgrade given my own specific usage
patterns and needs. Upgrading would only be done for getting
an updated Kexi, and for me upgrading Ubuntu on a MacBook
Pro is not a small job. So this being the case, let me just
ask the following questions:
I can't see updates for even new Ubuntu on this web page, 2.9.7
is too old:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/kexi
Does this mean that 16.04 is going to install an old version of
kexi?
Or are you saying you don't know what version of Kexi it will
install?
There's contact email kubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com to the
developers where yo ucan ask for help.
But have you tried this advice?
http://www.askmetutorials.com/2016/02/install-calligra-office-suite-2911-on.html
Now this is very exciting indeed. I will definitely try this--
right now.
Do I need to first uninstall my existing version of Kexi? And if
so, can I use the Ubuntu software manager to do the install?
Or can I leave the current install in place and install 2.9.11
alongside it?
There can be only one version installed in one system, and the
system would only propose installation is newer version is found.
I just now uninstalled kexi using the Ubuntu software manager, and
then followed the listed tutorial for the new install of Calligra
2.9.11. But to my surprise, it merely re-installed the very same old
version which I've had for ages (Kexi Version 2.8.5, Using KDE
Platform Version 4.14.13). So I'm afraid the tutorial is not working
for installing Calligra 2.9.11. It just installs the ages old version
of KOffice which comes with Ubuntu 14.04 repos. Please do let me know
if you have a solution for this.
just to add some salt.
Running Kubuntu 15.10 which delivers Kexi 2.9.7 (much better than 2.8.5)
I added the backport PPA ....which put down the file manager, and did
not upgrade Kexi to 2.9.11
So I just went back to before the added PPA, corrected some
problems....and now go on waiting for next upgrades of Kexi by basic
PPAs, since, on another hand, I don't success to compile....
