Failed install in Linux Mint 19

Pats_pending · December 18, 2018, 1:52pm

I have been using Ganttproject for a long time, and I upgraded to Mint 19 when I built a new computer. I have open jdk 8 but I get errors on startup so that it crashes out. The terminal says that it cannot find assistive technology, but according to synaptic it is installed and it says it cannot find ATKwrapper, but Gir1.2 ATK is installed. After this it tries to load various java modules without success.

I have never had these problems before - does anybody have ideas?

I get the same garbage from installing the Deb package or from unpacking into a sub-directory.

Wow, that did the trick! Thank you so much, I would never have found that on my own. I love Ganttproject for my work, so well done for your hard work.
