Hello, I am trying to downloading this klayout file. I am now getting processing errors for klayout. Can someone assist me?

@Fehintola Sangodeyi Can you try installing the dependencies listed first? For example,
Copy code
sudo apt install python
You may need to specify the version.
f
when i try to install the dependencies, it either states its uninstallable or its outdated.
m
You probably don’t install lib*. Try sudo apt install python
r
If you install the klayout package using apt it will automatically try to fix the dependencies.
Copy code
apt install /home/fesan1/Downloads/klayout_0.29.0-1_amd64.deb

Try
sudo apt --fix-broken install python-is-python3
f
I think it worked.

@Fehintola Sangodeyi 🎉 Looks like python is installed now. Try the other dependencies
qt5
,
git
, and
ruby
.
f
It states there is no installation canidate
m
Right,
You probably don’t install lib*.
lib
is not part of the package name. For example, instead of
Copy code
sudo apt install libruby2.7
try
Copy code
sudo apt install ruby
or you may need to specify the version. See here.

Use
Copy code
apt-show-versions git
apt-show-versions ruby
to find the installed versions. Update the versions if necessary
Copy code
sudo apt install git
sudo apt install ruby

Is there a way to override klayout (not use klayout) to perform this https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZuGFJzpFksB83NFHbO_U5Uw3ufjbJ7ws&si=SE2l0ZhJCJyyat6o? Because none of the packages are actually available. I don’t want to repeat the same steps if I am not progressing.
@Mitch Bailey Do you by any chance know anyone who is an expert on klayout?
