I am using Ubuntu 16.04 on may mac-book and would like to install popcorn time(the current version is 3.2). However all the packages of popcorn time that I have downloaded either;
- Do not have an installation file ( so I cannot use
sudo ./install
) - Are not executable and simply do nothing when double clicked,
- Give me an error "Sorry, this did not work, no
file_to_app
results to show" when they try open with Ubuntu software installer
EDIT 1; This is the procedure I first used as in a popular post here in askubuntu;
- Download PopCorn Time.
- Open a Terminal ( Ctrl + Alt + T ).
- Enter in your download folder :
cd ~/Downloads mkdir $$
- Extract the downloaded archive
tar -xf Popcorn-Time-*.tar.xz -C $$
- Run
cd $$
sudo ./install.
Then when
sudo ./install
returned no such file, I tried going into the unzipped folder and double clicking the popcorn-time file, that's when I got:
Sorry, this did not work, no file_to_app results to show
