No match for argument: cherrytree
Error: Unable to find a match: cherrytree
[root@localhost limo]#
My questions now:
1- I can’t find cherrytree in “Discover”
2- I downloaded several RPM files (I believed should be OK), but whatever RPM I try to install I get an error message saying something like compatibility problem. EDIT: The message is exactly Package conflict found
What I might be missing?
3- I am a bit old school, I prefer the old way of installing from “Discover” or from RPM. Not really enthusiastic about AppImages or FlatPacks.
I wonder what am I missing?
What should I do to get it working as expected?
I will highly appreciate your support.
Thank you.
P,S.
I found cherrytree as a flatpack in “Discover”, tried to install, it took hours and didn’t finish so I cancelled.
VLC is there as a flatpack only as well.
P.P.S:
If FlatPack is better, I do not mind. Any guidance to get the best will be appreciated.
