New Linux user here [go easy if you can...]
I downloaded the .deb from: https://www.thefanclub.co.za/overgrive (version 3.1.3 beta). However, when I try to launch overGrive from the dash, the window never pops up. I just get the spinning wheel for ~6sec and then nothing.
I have tried to remove (i.e. sudo apt-get remove overgrive
) and reinstall by double-clicking the deb package and running dpkg from the command line. It seems to install fine both ways, but I can never get the window to launch. I am on a laptop with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
After checking various boards; a solution that worked was to install google's api-python client from the command line using the following commands (several times):
sudo -H pip install --upgrade pip
sudo -H pip2 install --upgrade google-api-python-client
However, this did not solve the issue. The terminal outputs for the two above commands were as follows, respectively:
Requirement already up-to-date: pip in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (10.0.1)
And
Requirement already up-to-date: google-api-python-client in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (1.7.3)
Does anyone have any idea how might be able to solve this issue? Thanks in advance!
