Help with Borg Calendar
Re: Help with Borg Calendar
Thanks for this. You success with the tar.gxz. archive shows that it's the .deb from the Borg Calendar developers that's broken and not the application itself.

In Linux, newer isn't always better. The best solution is the one that works.

Re: Help with Borg Calendar
That's very similar to the error message I reported in post #2. However, we have yet to hear from the OP about his progress.siamhie wrote: Sat May 31, 2025 1:36 pm@j2mcgreg The deb file is stuffed.j2mcgreg wrote: Sat May 31, 2025 1:24 pm Thanks for this.

Re: Help with Borg Calendar
The t64 libraries show that they are either built on a recent Ubuntu release, or a unreleased development version of Debian. It's not a problem we haven't seen over and over in third-party debs.
MXPI = MX Package Installer
QSI = Quick System Info from menu
The MX Test repository is mostly backports; not the same as Debian testing

@mxCKvS Download the tar.gz file from the link you posted. Unzip it and go into it's bin folder and launch BorgCalendar.mxCKvS wrote: Sat May 31, 2025 5:41 am Hi all,
In my (Linux Newbie) search for a simple calendar/event/task PIM-like manager, solid and sufficient for my humble work purposes, I have, after eliminating existing programs such as Osmo, Orage etc., come upon this
https://github.com/mikeberger/borg_calendar/releases
which is not in the MX repositories but which users of other Debian distros have been successful with.

Re: Help with Borg Calendar
MX 25/Trixie is also using them. Reverting the upstream t64 library transition is one of the things I now do for backports to MX 21/23 for many packages, which has made them more difficult. I also do a search in the whole debian subfolder for the "t64" text string to make sure I didn't miss anything.siamhie wrote: Sun Jun 01, 2025 12:47 amYour right.
