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of the Snap packages, staying with outdated software on LTS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?
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
<mailto: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, is
it ok to use the Ubuntu software manager to do the *uninstall *?
Or can I leave the current install in place and install 2.9.11 alongside it?
1. By upgrading to 16.04 LTS, will I get the latest finalized
version of Kexi? Or if not, which version of Kexi will be included
in Ubuntu 16.04?
2. Will the version of Kexi which is included have the following
features:
-Ability to add rows to the middle of a table which is already in
existence
-Ability to add columns to the middle of a table which is already
in existence
-Ability to change the name of a column in an existing table.
(Currently this requires going into the data view, with the
warning that making any changes will wipe out all the data in the
table)
-Ability to move existing rows/columns in a table which is already
in existence
Have these features not yet been developed then?
Thanks,
Swarup
