Here's the dependencies list reformatted to existing package names on my Linux Mint 21.1 system (Ubuntu 22.04 based) to the best of my ability, possible there is some redundancy and only 2 or 3 of them are named differently libhidapi-dev libhidapi-hidraw0 libqt5core5a libqt5network5 libqt5xml5 libqt5xmlpatterns5 libqt5svg5 libqt5svg5-dev qtbase5-dev Edit: forgot qtbase5-dev

Came here just to say this worked for me on Mint 21.1/Ubuntu 22.04 Today. This should be the official Linux how-to. More or less did exactly the same thing and grabbed the udev script from here. The official repo is broken and the official install script doesn't report errors. Rebooted twice before discovering it never installed any packages! Also the udev files are not bundled into the tarball so this was the only place to find them. Again this is what worked for me. I think a few of the dependency names are wrong. Reminder to anyone looking for apt packages, make use of "apt search <keyword>" and break the keyword into a component part, sometimes Ubuntu names things weird. Thanks for sharing. Was at first quite disappointed from the messy experience at first but it got better. :)

I have simmilar problem using curl instaling version on Ubuntu 22.04 64bit. Script successful executed, but nothing was installed. (I think the repo is broken or unavailable) Then I tryed manual install from sources with success : 1. https://flirc.com/ubuntu-software-installation-guide - download Latest Archive 64bit 2. Unzip and copy flirc_util and Flirc files to /usr/local/bin/ 3 In directory /etc/udev/rules.d create new file and name it 99-flirc.rules. Paste bellow content: # Flirc Devices # Bootloader SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", ATTR{idVendor}=="20a0", ATTR{idProduct}=="0000", MODE="0666" SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", ATTR{idVendor}=="20a0", ATTR{idProduct}=="0002", MODE="0666" SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTRS{idVendor}=="20a0", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0005", MODE="0666" # Flirc Application SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", ATTR{idVendor}=="20a0", ATTR{idProduct}=="0001", MODE="0666" SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", ATTR{idVendor}=="20a0", ATTR{idProduct}=="0004", MODE="0666" SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTRS{idVendor}=="20a0", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0006", MODE="0666" 4. Restart computer 5.When I try to start Flirc I got libreadline.so.7 missing dependencies error. In Ubuntu 22.04 is now version libreadline.so.8 installed so I crate symlink : sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libreadline.so.8 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libreadline.so.7 6. Install other dependencies. (not all will install, but don't afraid and continue) sudo apt install libhidapi-hidraw0 sudo apt install libqt5core5a sudo apt install libqt5network5 sudo apt install libqt5xml5 sudo apt install libqt5xmlpatterns5 sudo apt install libhid sudo apt install qt5-qtbase sudo apt install qt5-qtsvg sudo apt install hidapi 7. Start configuration program using sudo command (without sudo program starting, but throw errors) : sudo Flirc
