I’m using PureOS (debian derivate) and when I’m trying to install SF deamon and gui Im get the error message that libevent-2.0-5 is missing and it’s not to install.
SF was working til last upgrade so I’m searching for a way to install the older version of SF.
Use one of your backups and put in the new db and the new seafile-data or use your first installtion tarball. If you don’t have this anymore, maybe I or someone else can provide this file for you.
Do you really think Debian has propetairy components and is the DFSG not good enough for you?
What exact version are you trying to install and how?
The Pureos Repository seems to contain exactly the version that is currently in Debian testing: https://repo.pureos.net/pureos/pool/main/s/seafile-client/
so there should not be a problem regarding libevent since it’s all built on the same distribution.
I’m using a HP x360 convertible Laptop and with Debian the sensors, onscreen keyboard and touch screen wasn’t working out of the box. But with PureOS all working fine. So I can use my Laptop in tablet mode
Because I can’t see my last reply, I will post it again:
After removing SF complete via terminal I have reinstalled SF via “Software Application” and it was starting and syncing without any delay.
So the issue is solved
