Linux package on download page not working

Post #1by reedhedges » 14.01.2017, 22:43

Hello,

It looks like the Linux package linked to from http://celestiaproject.net/download.html relies on Autopackage which no longer exists, so installation fails. Perhaps the Download page on the website should be updated to direct Linux users to try compiling from source instead (with any neccesary warnings about some things still in development or in progress.) You could still link to the Celestia autopackage but tell people they need to find an archived autopackage.tar.bz2 to use with it rather than let it try to download the missing stuff from defunct autotools.org?
