Screen problems, Sheetcam under Linux

[AdrianH]

May be getting myself tied in knots here, but I found in another thread a libreadline7.zip which I unzipped and installed with
sudo apt install ./libreadline7_7.0-3_amd64.deb

Then I retried sheetcam 7.1.20
sudo apt install ./SheetCamTNG_7.1.20-1_amd64.deb

This seemed to install. But when I click on the icon to run sheetcam it crashes out, I have clicked to send in a report so hope that helps.

I am now for the time being trying to remove the two packages.

If SheetCam asked you to send a report it should have asled you to save a file which you can email to me. It may have been the operating system that asked if you wanted to send a report, in which case I will never see it.

It must have been the system I have a crash file in /var/crash it is 4.32 Meg in size.

The first set of lines are like this:-

I don't see anyhting obvious in the data you've given me but if you send me the whole cr4ash dump I may be able to figure out a bit mroe about what is going on.

[AdrianH]

Hi Les sorry for not seeing a response, no email or anything marked as spam. Guess I have to just keep checking back.

I will send you the file via email.

One other question is, if I have installed in Linux by double clicking on the sheetcam.setup file, how do I uninstall it?
