No longer able to install picolog on Raspberry pi
No longer able to install picolog on Raspberry pi
Hello,
I've used picolog 6 on raspberry pi for about 2 years now without issue, but it is seemingly impossible to install now.
On a Raspberry pi 4 with a new sd and a fresh installation of Raspberry Pi Os, I follow along with the steps in the "Starting with PicoLog 6 on Raspberry Pi" youtube video. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZC5tubw-mM)
The Pi boots up, I successfully run and reboot.
Next we have to import the public key, which is the first problem we hit.
Running as the video suggests gives us a warning:
and it seems to work fine.
The next biggest issue is actually installing the picolog package itself, as running nets us the following error:
This seems to fix the dependency issues, but picolog still wont run when the icon is clicked. Uninstalling the package and reinstalling it with dpkg like before also doesn't help, and when I try running picolog from the terminal I get the following:
Please advise.

Re: No longer able to install picolog on Raspberry pi
I have found a solution to this problem.
Steps to solve:
- Run: `find / -iname "picolog.bin` # For me the picolog.bin file was found in /opt/PicoLog/picolog.bin
- Run: `sudo nano /usr/bin/picolog.bin` edit the file such that you fill in the correct location of the picolog.bin file.
For me the /usr/bin/picolog.bin file ended up looking like this:

Re: No longer able to install picolog on Raspberry pi
I am experiencing exactly the same issue. I have managed to get to this last step and found the picolog.bin file in /opt/Picolog but I don't know how to edit it to fill in the correct location.
Could someone please help me with some guidance on how to complete this last step please.
