[SOLVED] Ubuntu 16 Spider Solitaire Issue

michael diemer · 10-14-2016, 06:56 PM

On my install of Ubuntu 16, which is working fine, I love to play Spider Aisleriot (anagram for Solitaire - just realized that today). However, it doesn't have a two-hand version. My Deepin install has a different version, and it doesn't have this problem. I checked, and they are two different versions.

Is there a way to get the Deepin version on to my Ubuntu install? I have been trying to figure this out, but have come up blank so far. It appears to be more complicated than it would seem.

Hi Michael...

Possibly. In case it helps anyone, I'm posting the link to your Ubuntu thread here. Did you first see if your version in Ubuntu can be upgraded using Synaptic? If not, I did find the .deb package for 3.22.0 (16.10 "yakkety yak") here that you can try. However, if any of the dependencies differ, it may not work for 16.04.

Regards...

Thanks, ardvark. That worked (the link). Now I can waste time on Ubuntu again as efficiently as on Deepin.
