Install on Ubuntu 24.04

[louisdoe]

Hi

Hamster does install on Ubuntu 24.04 using the repo
sudo apt install hamster-time-tracker
but doesn't launch then.

Can someone help me install Hamster in 24.04 ? I really need it for work as I've been working with it for years ;)

Thanks a lot

Same issue as #764?

Thanks. For those interested, here are the commands I had to use to install the missing dependencies.

cd ~
mkdir hamster
cd hamster
wget https://github.com/projecthamster/hamster/archive/master.zip
unzip master.zip
cd hamster-master
sudo apt install intltool gettext libglib2.0-dev
./waf configure build
( umask 0022 && sudo ./waf install; )

I'd like to import my previous tracking database in this new install of Hamster, can you tell me where is it located :
/home/me/.local/share/hamster or /home/me/.local/share/hamster-applet ?

Thanks

Just copy your previous hamster.db to ~/.local/share/hamster/hamster.db. Depending on which previous version you used it may have been stored under ~/.local/share/hamster-applet or ~/.local/share/hamster-time-tracker.
