why there is nothing work after run this script ?

Probably because your architecture is not x64, try running dkpg --print-architecture or lscpu to check it. I have done this PR, try cloning that repo and run the install script again. A few apps can fail, you will find omakub_report.log in the root after installation completes. Clone && run install.sh directly not via wget.

I'm also experiencing the same issue and my architecture is x64, installed it in a vm perfectly fine 2 days ago went to install on bare metal and encountered the same problem

Hi @IbrahimTanyalcin! Greetings to you from Argentina 🇦🇷
I have the same issue @EsamLasheen mentioned a few hours ago... My architecture is x86_64 Does it work with it?
I've had installed 3 times Ubuntu 24.04 LTS to run this script.
The first time I've executed I've had receive this warning: The unit file, source configuration file or drops-on of apt-news.service changed on disk. Run 'systemctl daemon-reload' to reload units. It happened twice.
This is the terminal screenshot

Could you help me to solve it? I don't do an sudo apt update to avoid not to have an Ubuntu "fresh install". Thank you!

I was running into the same problem. There appears to be an issue with the gum installation as part of the install script.

There's a script referenced in the installer (app-gum.sh) that looks like this:

# Gum is used for the Omakub commands for tailoring Omakub after the initial install
cd /tmp
GUM_VERSION="0.14.1" # Use known good version
wget -qO gum.deb "https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum/releases/latest/download/gum_${GUM_VERSION}_amd64.deb"
sudo apt-get install -y ./gum.deb
rm gum.deb
cd -

It's setting the GUM_VERSION to 0.14.1, but the wget link points to latest. Which will probably always break when new versions are released. The fix would be to change this line:

wget -qO gum.deb "https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum/releases/latest/download/gum_${GUM_VERSION}_amd64.deb"

to this:

wget -qO gum.deb "https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum/releases/download/v{GUM_VERSION}/gum_${GUM_VERSION}_amd64.deb"

I'll see about creating a PR here in a few minutes after I finish testing it just to be sure.

@cyommer Hi! I installed "gum" using snap but a few minutes later I've found the same script about "gum" with the version is required to the script to work out... I'll wait your response. Thanks for your comment!

@nestorjgomez 👋

As a quick workaround, you can maybe take one of two paths.

1. If you've already installed gum, you should be able to edit ~/.local/share/omakub/install.sh and comment out this line:

source ~/.local/share/omakub/install/terminal/required/app-gum.sh >/dev/null

and then re-run the install from ~/.local/share/omakub/install.sh.

or...

2. You could update ~/.local/share/omakub/install/terminal/required/app-gum.sh with the changes mentioned in my previous comment.

Either way should work.

@nestorjgomez it seems to be similar to this although not exactly the same, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-advantage-tools/+bug/2055239, they report it to be harmless, This should work:

wget -qO gum.deb "https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum/releases/latest/download/gum_${GUM_VERSION}_${ARCH}.deb"
sudo apt-get install -y ./gum.deb
rm gum.deb

you can replace GUM_VERSION with "latest" as @cyommer suggessted and ARCH should be amd64 for x86_x64 and arm64 for aarch64

@nestorjgomez
does it work with you ?

[dhh]

Fixed the immediate issue in fcb3e9c. But we need to fix that installer. It's using the latest path but with a specific version. And that breaks whenever there's a release of gum.

[nestorjgomez]

Thanks to all of you!!
@dhh Do you recommend me to delete the "previous version" and clone it again to test that if it works? Greetings to you from Argentina!!

[dhh]

No, it'll automatically pull down the latest version when you run the installer again. So you can just paste and run.

[dhh]

Going to start a new ticket for the upgrade needed.

See #231

I have followed the @cyommer e @IbrahimTanyalcin suggestions:

• I manually downloaded the latest version of gum from the repository https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum/releases/tag/v0.14.3
• Install it conf sudo dpkg -i ./gum_0.14.3_amd64.deb (as I show in the screenshot)
• I modified and saved app-gum.sh like this:
  GUM_VERSION="0.14.3"
  -# Use known good version
  wget -qO gum.deb "https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum/releases/download/v{GUM_VERSION}/gum_${GUM_VERSION}_amd64.deb"
• I modified install.sh and commented out the line:
  echo "Get ready to make a few choices..."
  -# source ~/.local/share/omakub/install/terminal/required/app-gum.sh >/dev/null
  source ~/.local/share/omakub/first_run_choices.sh
  And it works (what you see in the screenshot is how I currently have it)

It worked for me @dhh @cyommer @IbrahimTanyalcin @EsamLasheen @linuxnoob21!! Some warnings came up, but the installation was never stopped abruptly...
