How to install FileBot on Raspbian Buster L?

[kgello]

Java 11+ is now required. At this point in time, Java 13.0.2 should already be installed by default via the Java Installer package:

Hi!

Does this requirement concern all systems, or just Synology?

I'm asking, because I've spent the better part of my afternoon trying to install Filebot on a new RPi (Raspbian Buster L). It shouldn't have taken me this long, but as newby, I first downloaded the "Debian Stretch / Raspberry Pi package" (and OpenJDK 8) since it seemed more relevant than the "Debian Buster / Ubuntu 18.10 package" which I should have downloaded along with OpenJDK 11.

Please don't take this as me complaining, it's anything but! I'm used to the pain of learning and I love it! I'm just asking whether this naming is intentional or not, if it would have worked on a Raspbian Strech + OpenJDK8 environment.

Since this is my first comment on this forum (that I remember), I just want to let you know, how much I love your work with Filebot, and I hope It will support You at least as long as You support It!

If you're using Debian Linux, then you can and should use the apt package which in turn will install all the necessary dependencies automatically:

FileBot provides it's own APT repository, so you can install and upgrade FileBot via sudo apt-get install filebot.


The installer/deb.sh will add the repository and install FileBot for you:

Code: Select all

bash -xu <<< "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/filebot/plugins/master/installer/deb.sh)"
