Install of 18.1 ResolveStudio (Linux)

Trying to install 18.1 in Linux Mint Cinnamon (18.0.4 running fine, so 18.1 is an upgrade) and I get this error on starting the script:

Missing or outdated system packages detected.

Please install the following missing packages:
libapr1 libaprutil1 libxcb-cursor0

But I have all the packages and the latest versions! Not sure where to turn.
I have the USB Dongle for the Studio version
latest i7 processor, 64 GB memory

======================
UPDATE *** SOLVED ***
======================
Looked over the replies and I think I see the error. I ran the Synaptic Package Manager and if the little box is NOT shaded, the package is NOT installed! Click on the box and install each missing package and Davinci Resolve 18.1 installs fine.

The most robust approach is outlined by Peter Urbanic running the terminal command:

Code: Select all

dpkg-query -l 'libapr*' 'libxcb-cursor*'

You can then use apt install to install the missing packages.

If you want a GUI solution, run Synaptic Package Manager. In reference to Dean Du's post, I checked my Ubuntu 20.04 and installed manually the Synaptic Package Manager and it works the same as in Linux Mint 21. He can use that to check that the packages are installed. Search for each package, Click on it and choose Mark for installation.

I am going to write up these notes and append them to BlackMagic's Linux Installation Instructions.

Ubuntu 20.04 has the same problem

Same here. I installed the librairies manually, and then it could be installed.

Can you please run the following command on the Ubuntu 20.04 system?

Code: Select all

dpkg-query -l 'libapr*' 'libxcb-cursor*'


If the required packages are properly installed, it should return something similar to this:

Code: Select all

dpkg-query -l 'libapr*' 'libxcb-cursor*'

The ii in the first column indicates that the package is installed.

To install the required packages, you can run the Resolve installer and it will list the missing packages. You can copy that list and use it to install the missing packages using a package manager such as apt, yum or zypper. For example, on Ubuntu 20.04:

Code: Select all

 sudo apt install libapr1 libaprutil1 libxcb-cursor0

If you've got an NVidia card you can save a lot of bother by running it in Docker:

I used  sudo apt install libapr1 libaprutil1 libxcb-cursor0

to solve the problem but now i must install the following missing packages: libxcb-damage0

Pls advice
