Ancestris for MX-21

#1 Post by chrispop99 »

We have the genealogy program Ancestris in the MX Test Repo for MX-19. Would it be possible to add it to MX-21 please?

https://www.ancestris.org/index.html

TIA

Pobably it should be very easy, due to the fact that Ancestris is JAVA/JRE app Also, here is official DEB of Ancestris 11 (latest stable release) for Debian: Packaging status on Repology: N.B. As alternative to Ancestris, there is Gramps, which package in MX Repo should be updated too (from 5.1.3 to 5.1.4):

I'll put it on my to-do list. You can use the deb from Ancestris or MX 19 in the meantime; being that it's Java means that it's quite MX version agnostic.

Many thanks; no urgency.
