bibleanalyzer_5.5-1 on Debian

[Hendrik]

Hello. I am new to the forum so I apologize if I forget a rule or principle.

I am attempting to install Bible Analyzer on my Debian based Distribution on my 64bit (Intel I-core) Desktop PC.

I downloaded bibleanalyzer_5.5-1_all.deb.

"$ cat /etc/*-release" produces:

Code: Select all

Trying to install the .deb file produces this result:

I will be glad to know if there is a solution. I am not a programming engineer, so I might do something wrong on the first try.

The issue is Bible Analyzer need Python 3.10 while your distro only has 3.11 available.

I plan on updating Bible Analyzer 5.6 to Linux once the next Ubuntu LTR comes out (4/24). I am looking to make it possible for Bible Analyzer to run with Python versions 3.10-3.12 which will make it compatible with other Debian based distros as well.
