Some programs fail to start in Emmabuntues 32-bit

[uli-jaw]

Emmabuntues is basically great. Furthermore with the extensive accessibility functions introduced since 2024.
While until version DE5-1.01 you had to decide still at installation wether to use the OS with or without accessibility functions, this has changed afterwards.

Specifically these errors are verfified to occur at DE5 1.03 & 1.04 in Emmabuntues 32-bit.

And since then, some programs fail to start:
1) Tux-Math
2) Tux-Typing
3) VMG (Virtual-Magnifying-Glass)

Ad 1)
Terminal → tuxtype → /usr/share/tuxtypelibpng warning: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile

Ad 2)
Terminal → tuxmath → tuxmath: symbol lookup error: tuxmath: undefined symbol: wrapped_lines

Ad 3)
Terminal → vmg →see error-message in next paragraph

Please take a closer look at these issues.
I am working for a social organisation in Austria and, as a first test in Free-Software, we are using Emmabuntues at 2 decommissined, very old notebooks with very little hardware-ressources.
So the 32-bit version of Emmabuntues is still important for and appreciated by us 
Thank you for all your good work!

Hello uli-jaw,

Indeed, the accessibility versions of tuxmath and tuxtype don't work in 32-bit versions.
You need to uninstall them and install the official Debian versions:

Code: [Sélectionner]

sudo apt update
sudo apt purge -y tuxmath tuxtype
sudo apt autoremove -y
sudo apt install -y tuxmath tuxtype
Regarding vmg, it doesn't work in 32-bit versions, and I don't know why at the moment.

Thank you Patrick for your proper reply.
I'm not in the office today, will try the commands and am sure, they are going to work :-)

I've also made some search about the problem with VMG.
First feedback is, that libatk-adaptor seems to be the decisive library. And reinstalling it has solved similiar issue with other programs.

Hello uli-jaw,

The package libatk-adaptor is not present on Emmabuntüs :

Hello Patrick!
Oh, too bad, that this is not the solution
 
I'll keep on searching.
