Hi!

You can simply ignore the libappindicator dependency. RDM will disable the app icon if the lib isn't installed.

sudo dpkg --ignore-depends=libappindicator3-1 -i RemoteDesktopManager.Free_2022.2.1.5_adm64.deb


Let me know if this works for you.

Hello,

Thanks Jonathan. Hope that your provided method also works. I used following method to download and install the missing library, and it worked.

wget http://ftp.mx.debian.org/debian/pool/main/liba/libappindicator/libappindicator3-1_0.4.92-7_amd64.deb
sudo apt install ./libappindicator3-1_0.4.92-7_amd64.deb

Hi,

Glad you could make it work.
To prevent this kind of problem in the future, we have moved libapindicator from the deb's dependency section to the suggestion section.
That way, on platform where the lib isn't available, installation will not fail.
