Anki.Help.Linux

Anki Desktop

I tried putting sudo ./install.sh but it says that install.sh is not valid. Help?

2

did you open the terminal inside of the anki file?
otherwise, “will appear bash: ./install.sh: No such file or directory”

Assuming that you’re trying to run install.sh to install Anki, why don’t you try installing Anki with pip? It’s the easiest way I’ve found so far, and it can install the latest version regardless of what distro you’re running.

$ pip3 install aqt
$ anki

That’s it.

You can use “sudo sh install.sh”

On recent Ubuntu (Pop os, mint, zorin os, elementary os…) installations, please use ‘sudo apt install libxcb-xinerama0’ before installing

Once downloaded, the following commands in a terminal window will install Anki system-wide. The $ is the prompt character, and shouldn’t be typed in. Make sure what you’re entering in matches the file you downloaded.

About Pre-built Python wheels
$ python3.8 -m venv ~/pyenv
$ ~/pyenv/bin/pip install --upgrade pip
$ ~/pyenv/bin/pip install aqt

Then to run Anki:
$ ~/pyenv/bin/anki

That error can be resolved with ‘pip install --upgrade protobuf’, or installing a newer version from your distro.
