I recently was interested in modding, and I needed to install unity. I did that, and I run the .deb file, it comes up to the 'install software' application, then it says 'can't install Unity. Not supported'. Don't know why. I was able to run this VERY same .deb file on my old OS (MX Linux) but can't now...

Please help,

Thanks,

You could either use the following ways to install a package through a terminal:

  1. dpkg
sudo dpkg -i /path/to/deb.deb
  1. APT

There are actually 2 ways to install deb files with APT.

sudo apt install ./deb.deb

OR

sudo apt install /path/to/deb.deb

    I'd have mentioned dpkg requires all depends requirements to be installed before-hand, or at the same time (ie. using the same dpkg command). That's the benefit of apt in it'll handle depends requirements (if available in your sources). – guiverc Oct 02 '20 at 01:38

Did you tried to install via terminal? Maybe it will give your a better output to understand what is missing.

sudo dpkg -i <package_name.deb>
