I decided to see how hard it was to turn LC into a deb package. So far it hasn't been too difficult, the only thing I need to find again is how to have the icon auto update during the install. (as it is, to see the lc icon one must log out and in for it to show up, otherwise its the generic icon that shows... I have the answer to that specific thing.. I just need to remember where I put it. :)
I built the .deb package on ubuntu 16.4. Currently, I don't know if it will function as is on earlier versions, and would also like others to test. This is the x64 version. Any of you who like messing with vm's, would you mind downloading it and seeing if it will work? (I'd rather a safe check in a vm rather than a production system obviously, though there isn't all that much that could go wrong.. i'm still paranoid) The link to it is here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/49d4g6n4fi7nabz/livecode_9.0.0_dp_11_x64.deb?dl=0 To install, at a command prompt run: dpkg -i livecode_9.0.0_dp_11_x64.deb I added some dependencies to the deb, but i'm unsure (so far) what might need to be adjusted for earlier versions (if anything.) Still trying to get a handle on how it all works. (it seems deceptively simple, so i'm pretty sure i'm missing something!)
