Picoscope 6 install into Lubuntu

Post by RussellSenior »

I'm trying to install Picoscope 6 on Lubuntu. I followed the directions for the Ubuntu install, but it fails on the last step, installing the software. Below is the output from the terminal, and it seems I have some missing dependencies, but I'm not sure how to rectify the situation, any suggestions?

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install picoscope                                                                              
Reading package lists... Done                                                                                                
Building dependency tree                                                                                                     
Reading state information... Done

Hi,

Can you confirm what version of Lubuntu this is? And if this is a 32-bit or 64-bit version of the OS.
