Just download the binary tar ball and run it. Hope this is OK.įreemind is java based, so if you already have Java installed, no need to futz around with your apt configuration.

For these reasons, I allow myself to update your notes.
#Freemind on ubuntu install
The correct way to do it is really to add the FreeMind repositories to your sources and then install freemind using apt-get install freemind.įurthermore your instructions might let other, not having multiverse and universe setup, think that it's easier than it actually is. I'm happy that it works for you, but you're actually first breaking your system by installing FreeMind without taking care of the dependencies, and then repairing it using apt-get -f install.
I wrote how in the article under 'confirmed more easy install within Kubuntu 6.10'. Thanks to the tip 'apt-get -f install' it worked for me as well - with first try.
I used apt-get -f install to fix broken dependencies. deb on the FreeMind website and installed it. I didn't have to edit any files (but I am configured to use the the multiverse & universe repos already). I did install the j2re1.4 package (blackdown java). I can't quite remember the combination of procedures, but it works for me now. The instructions and link to the blog post (and its attendant comments) helped me manage to make FreeMind work on Ubuntu 6.10 (EdgyEft). (K)Ubuntu Instructions work on Ubuntu Edgy. project/experimental contrib main non-freeīut be careful, experimental packages can break other things. If you want to play with experimental, you need to add this to sources.list:ĭeb. At the time of writing FreeMind is not in experimental. Experimental isn't a formal part of Debian, but it is often used by developers when introducing a big change to a package. This is something that's going to vary with time, especially where Debian Experimental is concerned. Guess you should leave the /experimental in the sources.list away if you want to have the originall command working?Īm i right or am i wrong? not sure whether i did the whole stuff an other way or the wiki put the wrong command so i didn't change it. I found out i had to delete the /experimental, then:Īpt-get install freemind freemind-plugins-svg freemind-plugins-time freemind-plugins-time Wrong command in 'apt-get install' section?įor me the given command for installing freemind by using apt-get didn't work:Īpt-get install freemind/experimental freemind-plugins-svg/experimental freemind-plugins-time/experimental freemind-plugins-time/experimental 5 Comment on: When resizing the FreeMind window, the inner field doesn't resize properly (or other GUI strangeness). 2 (K)Ubuntu Instructions work on Ubuntu Edgy. 1 wrong command in 'apt-get install' section?.
