Couldn't get Nora to run in linux - deb & AppImage #207
Description
Describe the bug
With both the deb and AppImage (on my debian-derived distro), the GUI wouldn't show and the terminal showed errors.
I ended up pulling the source and npm start did work but again the buillds I made myself, had same issues.
- And this (issue) is just in hope to help someone facing same issue.
Expected behavior in terminal:
A JavaScript error occurred in the main process
Uncaught Exception:
Error:
Something went wrong installing the "sharp" module
libvips-cpp.so.42: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Possible solutions:
- Install with verbose logging and look for errors: "npm install --ignore-scripts=false --foreground-scripts --verbose sharp"
- Install for the current linux-x64 runtime: "npm install --platform=linux --arch=x64 sharp"
- Consult the installation documentation: https://sharp.pixelplumbing.com/install

System Information:
- Parrot OS v5.3
Solution
Did sudo apt install libvips (or to be specific libvips42).
And after that, both .deb installed pkg as well as the AppImage worked fine!
