From c861805604454494c7f959554570635bea87a662 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Franzen Date: Thu, 10 Aug 2017 15:39:27 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Add warning about Ubuntu 16.04 Xeniali Ubuntu 16.04 packaged version of rofi is extremly outdated. This causes all kind of weird behavior with newer scripts, i.e. with clerk. This commit adds a warning to the installation instructions to warn new users about this problem and direct them to install a newer version directly from launchpad. --- INSTALL.md | 7 ++++++- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/INSTALL.md b/INSTALL.md index a0aa032c..29ba29a2 100644 --- a/INSTALL.md +++ b/INSTALL.md @@ -184,9 +184,14 @@ gdb rofi core ``` apt install rofi - ``` +#### Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial + +**Please note that the latest version of rofi in Ubuntu 16.04 is extremly outdated (v0.15.11)** + +This will cause issues with newer scripts (i.e. with clerk) and we recommend to manually download and install the deb file for zesty instead.
