MX Linux Forum

Albert, a launcher/file & bookmark search engine/etc, was available from the MX21 repo. I used it a lot. I recently installed MX23 and it is not in any of the MXPI repos. Is it possible for Albert (C++/Qt) to be packaged for MX23?

This link has deb files but my trust is in the MX packagers and MXPI.

[Solved] Albert installation: "Package libpython3.9 is not available"

Do you find it better than Krunner? If so, what does it offer that Krunner doesn't?

I have no experience with KRunner. I am on Xfce and generally try to avoid the extra dependencies of KDE apps..

I'll take a look at it. It now runs on Qt 6, though.

Thanks! The parts I tried are working for me, that is, as a file finder.

Yes, we put it in MX 23 main, since it seems fine, and Debian doesn't have it.
