Re: I can't intalll Mplab IDE 5.35

Can you use 6.20 instead of 5.35 ?

If so, try https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/microchip-mplabx-bin .
Incase you're unfamiliar with AUR, read https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository

Moving to aur board as MPLAB is not in repos

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

Which you can still get from the AUR package, just check out the right commit with git.

Hi,

same here with Microchip's installer for MPLAB v5.40 as well as the corresponding AUR revision https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/ … a95ede7bf8

Yes I need an old revision due to legacy projects.

Error message from original installer:

The head of installer:

#!/bin/sh
# This script was generated using Makeself 2.1.5

CRCsum="817112588"
MD5="882e677bf2cae3b2ad782d047044329f"

scriptargs=""
targetdir="makeself-5297-20200514202509"
filesizes="931096127"
keep=n  

Using export TMPDIR=/root/tmp and mkdir /root/tmp does not help, so it is a missing/broken dependency?
