LobsterJ Offline Fresh Boarder Posts: 17 Karma: 0	Hello! I stealth installed Yacreader 9.0 on my Ubuntu Mate 17.10 i386 with the proper dependency development debian file, and holy cow - it works I mean, I shouldn't be surprised at all Sadly the only thing NOT working is the funky little word balloon logo. It shows up as a circle with line through it, akin to the no smoking symbol. Stlll love it, though! Thanks from Canada Jason

selmf Offline Developer Posts: 631 Thank you received: 135 Karma: 18	Hmmm you might want to try forcing an icon cache update: sudo gtk-update-icon-cache /usr/share/icons/hicolor If this works I'll add it to the packages as a postinstall command.

selmf Offline Developer Posts: 631 Thank you received: 135 Karma: 18	Actually the package already should do an icon cache update upon installation. But doing it once more shouldn't hurt. If it doesn't help please send me a screenshot so I can have a better look at the problem.

LobsterJ Offline Fresh Boarder Posts: 17 Karma: 0	solved! I had the beta installed, not the rc. Once I downloaded the newer version and installed it with Gdebi, everything's fine, including the updated logo. Smart looking stuff, everyone

selmf, Jason again. Updated my Ubuntu MATE to 18.04 beta - nice new build! trouble for YACREADER, though...

I have both libunarr 1.0.1-1.1_i386.deb and the dev downloaded and ready to use with my 8.5 and 9.0 debian installers. Sadly the libunarr library wouldn't install! there was a problem with the dpkg

dpkg: (in red)error: (then regular colour)unable to read filedescriptor flags for <package status and progress file description>: Bad file descriptor

Aw maaan! now what? I'd love to keep using YACreader

selmf Offline Developer Posts: 631 Thank you received: 135 Karma: 18	I'm not sure, I'm not running a .deb based system myself. When I still used Debian stuff like this sometimes happened with manually installed packages. You had to reinstall the packages or run a special "fix" command to take care of it, but I don't know if that still applies.
