Installing tuxedo-tomte_2.28.0_all.deb triggered a desktop notification: The version {version} of Debian GNU/Linux is not supported.

(note the {version} placeholder without value)

It appears /usr/bin/tuxedo-tomte is looking for VERSION_ID in /etc/os-release and not finding it.

FedericoCeratto avatar Apr 11 '24 09:04 FedericoCeratto

Could you please post the content of /etc/os-release ?

Ah, there is the problem, no version of Debian is supported by Tomte. Sorry.

Emohr-Tuxedo avatar Apr 12 '24 11:04 Emohr-Tuxedo

It appears to support Ubuntu... anyhow perhaps the error message should be made more clear.

The version {version} of Debian GNU/Linux is not supported.

Sorry, but what is not clear about this

Emohr-Tuxedo avatar Apr 12 '24 14:04 Emohr-Tuxedo

The sentence construction implies that a different version of debian would be supported.

@JonnieCache yes, additionally {version} is a placeholder for a version variable, instead it's being printed out verbatim.

THX, I will change the message

Emohr-Tuxedo avatar May 16 '24 14:05 Emohr-Tuxedo

Message has been changed, THX
