Hi John and thank you for the Debian-based port!
Requesting a couple of changes:
- Keep ubuntu-24.04/package_list_required minimal—please move optional tools/libs back to package_list_extra unless strictly needed
- util/installation/common/util.sh: remove leading spaces before elif for consistency
| OS="${DISTRIBUTOR}-${RELEASE}" | ||
| if echo "$OS" | grep -Eiq 'debian|mint|eepin' ; then | ||
| OS="ubuntu-24.04" | ||
| elif echo "$DISTRIBUTOR" | grep -Eiq 'buntu' ; then |

remove leading spaces before elif for consistency with surrounding indentation.

Thanks for the updates! From what I can see, several packages promoted to “required” don’t seem necessary for a minimal build. Could we move them back to package_list_extra unless the core build fails without them?
If any of these are hard requirements for the default configuration, please keep them and add a short rationale inline so it’s clear why they’re in the required set.

Dear stavros @sportokalidis .
From the packages I inspected I think that the lsb_release and gcc-11 are the only optional ones.
Other packages like patch may come preinstalled in some distros.
So I will rebase the commit and make the required change.
I am really sorry for the delay,
John Papadopoulos

Adding #include cstddef for fixing gcc-15 issues seems to be failing on older gcc compilers. The change will be reverted and a flag (or in the worst case a patch) will be included instead. ***EDIT: Seems to be a ROOT/cling issue. ***EDIT2: The problem seems to be fixed by recovering the gcc-11 packages |
One by one package installation for failsafe reasons. installing cmake after curl
add unofficial support for pop os and kde neon
Add unofficial support for pop os and kde neon

Dear eveyone, After Stavros ported the biodynamo platform to ubuntu 24.04. I have managed to port it to other debian-based and ubuntu based platforms with very little effort.
I have just made some changes in order to identify some debian based distros as ubuntu 24.04 and continue the installation with ubuntu 24.04 scheme.
additionally I have made a modification that allows any flavor of ubuntu to be identified as ubuntu-PLATFORM_VERSION
currently tested on deepin linux and will be tested on debian soon.
UPDATE: works fine on debian 12
