Add Linux mint to build processes

Could anyone, please, confirm whether this software works on Linux Mint 21? I'm having issues. Am I the only case? Thanks.

I was able to install the .deb files but am getting errors running the program, trying alien to convert the rpm files. I have a new laptop on the way so I'll be able to build and release a new version this week hopefully.

This worked for me, I'll post the file as a release asset and add this to the build process:

Runs on Linux Mint: https://github.com/lacymorrow/crossover/releases/download/v3.1.5/crossover_3.1.5_mint_amd64.deb

https://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/821

Linux Mint Support only deb package installation, If you have some software in rpm package you can install it in Linux Mint easily.

To install open Terminal (Press Ctrl+Alt+T) and copy the following command in the Terminal:

sudo apt-get install alien dpkg-dev debhelper build-essential

Now convert package from RPM format to DEB format, use the following command. Change your packagename in command:

sudo alien packagename.rpm

To install the deb package enter following command:

sudo dpkg -i packagename.deb
