installJRMC - MC installer for Linux
Awesome Donkey:
Try just running ./installJRMC -d and omit the --local and --compat switches so it adds the repo and does it from there. It has to add the Noble repo so it can get and satisfy the libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 dependency, otherwise no go.

That worked.
The install is complete.
thx.

I've read all installJMRC installer threads and I have to say I am lost. They're almost an identical copy/paste of each other.
You download the installer for Windows/Mac, it has all the bits and bytes. Configuration is something else, there's so much threads you you'd find your way out.
You want to achieve the same in Linux (RPi 5 specifically) and you find yourself like the doctor gave you 20 different drugs without any guidance (only, read the each drug package instructions and you're on your own).
I am an IT guy but I do not want to reinvent the wheel with Linux.
You should consider you sell the product to users not to Linux gurus.
That's why we (are supposed to) pay for a license, so we get some valuable instructions. Bombarding with endless texts, is NOT USABLE, it is just waste of time, for you too, don't forget it.
How we are supposed to know which of the options we need or not?
Please, can't someone just provide a working example and some clear guidance on what to do next (e.g. to make the server run in the Linux OS)?
Is it so much I ask? Clear instructions targeting 90% of the users. The rest of the Linux gurus they want to Build MC from the source code (who and why would ever need that???) can focus on the advanced available options.
Thank you very much.
Appreciate your help in advance. Let's focus on solutions please.

Welcome to Linux, where everything is more complicated. ;D
Download the installJRMC script and open a terminal into the directory you downloaded installJRMC.sh in and type in and run ./installJRMC -d from the terminal and see what happens. Of course, you didn't mention what distro you're using, which is very important when doing a post like that.
