Debian User Forums

hello!

how do i delete my account?
i cant find the option in the user control panel.

I'm assuming you'd get better help on that one by going to the wine support page/forum. You'll find more wine specific grey matter there. i will try with the wine page, thanks! But a quick web search for the class says it is registered to windows.storage.dll so make sure your storage backing for wi...

ive been using wine mostly to install and play videogames on my previous linux mint installation, but since i passed to debian, wine doesn't seem to be working for me anymore. every time i try to install anything, it always give the same error: OLE error 80040154 ClassID: {00021401-0000-0000-C000-00...

when i tried that, the screen went black and never went back on.

now, if i turn on my laptop, i can only login in command line mode.

i was able to read only one error during the boot and i run the command suggested and took a photo of it:

i have just turned on my laptop this morning and, when i reach the login page, i enter my user name and pin, the screen goes black and then it goes back to the login page. im currently logged in the root user and that's how im able to send this message. anyone have any idea on what's going on and ho...

thank you to all of your the help.

i decided to stick with the gnome-software one because it seems to be more "complete" (even if i don't know why) in terms of plugins and theme/colours (all things i need to make the experience more accessible to me).

bless you all.

so, i could uninstall flatpak+flathub and keep using gnome-software for those kind of apps i can't get through apt install/synaptic? is using debian backports safer than something like flatpka/gnome-software? can i just uninstall the default libreoffice version through synaptic and keep the g-s one?...

i have no idea.
pretty sure i didn't "willingly" installed it myself.

oh, i had no idea about that.

so, it is something like flatpak basically?

i will try to read more about it and learn.

thank you very much for the help to both of you.

That tells you what should be installed. " apt list -i " shows what is installed. -i is short for --installed which you can use instead. thank you! so, i will try it again: :~$ apt-cache depends -i libreoffice libreoffice Depends: libreoffice-base Depends: libreoffice-calc Depends: libreo...

You forgot the asterisk in the command I posted. sorry, my bad. :~$ apt list -i libreoffice* Listing...

:~$ apt list -i libreoffice Listing... Done libreoffice/stable,stable-security,now 1:7.0.4-4+deb11u4 amd64 [installed] which is basically saying i have only one app? in the menu i have the double of the icons and if i open one rather that the other they are effectively two separate app (i tried by ...

i randomly happened to install libreoffice from the "Software" app (in xfce can be found in Applications -> System) because another app i was using couldn't detect the default libreoffice installation. i realised the new libreoffice installation works much better than the default one for s...

does anyone have experience with building from source? has that given you problems?

i read it, but it doesn't give any advice on how to undo a frankendebian.

Only known sure way is to reinstall Debian.

that's what i did.
