How to install tar.gz (citrix receiver) on Intel Clear Linux

SML · 01-14-2017, 06:48 PM

I want to switch to Intel Clear Linux and I have everything working nicely except for the installation of Citrix Receiver.

Clear only works with their own bundles of software and flatpak.

As Clear is not compatible with rpm and deb (and I cannot find a flatpak for Citrix), I think I need to use the tar.gz citrix download.

How do I resolve the dependencies required for the citrix tar.gz?

Have Citrix published a list of dependencies for the package?

Not sure if this helps, but the Citrix Receiver DEB package reports the following packages are dependencies

Code:

~/Downloads/Citrix$ find *deb -exec dpkg -f {} Depends \;                                                                                                              
libc6 (>= 2.13-38), libice6 (>= 1:1.0.0), libgtk2.0-0 (>= 2.12.0), libsm6, libx11-6, libxext6, libxmu6, libxpm4, libasound2, libstdc++6, libwebkit-1.0-2 | libwebkitgtk-1.0-0, libidn11, zlib1g

well if it is standard source compiling. which it probably isn't, nevertheless just in case it is.

I run ./configure and work off the not found errors which are dependencies not installed for the most part. then go down the list installing them.

Actually ... good news ... I just tried to open the ica file with the command line and it worked!

Summary ... all I had to install Citrix Receiver on Clear Linux was use the tar.gz file with built-in installer.
