Debian Linux

The Debian package (.deb extension) is built and tested on Ubuntu 20.04. Installation on other Debian-based systems may be possible, but remains untested.

The package can be installed from the command line using:

$ sudo gdebi calypsi-nut-.deb

Note

Download the Debian package to a local file before installation. gdebi does not fetch packages from a server.

If you do not have gdebi installed already, install it using:

$ sudo apt install gdebi-core

This installs the Calypsi tool chain in /usr/local/lib/calypsi-!targetLowercase-, where ```` is the installed version number.

To simplify tool invocation, the installer script adds symbolic links from /usr/local/bin to the installation directory. Ensure /usr/local/bin is in your PATH to use the latest the Calypsi tool chain. The installer also creates a symbolic link from /usr/local/lib/calypsi-!targetLowercase to the installation directory. This allows referring to the installation without a version number.

It is also possible to install using dpkg in the following way:

$ sudo dpkg -i calypsi-!targetLowercase-.deb

This may fail if package dependencies are missing. The output will advise on necessary steps before retrying installation.

After installing any requested dependencies, retry the sudo dpkg installation command.

Uninstalling

To uninstall the Calypsi tool chain, use dpkg with the -r flag:

$ sudo dpkg -r calypsi-!targetLowercase
