Can't install on Linux Mint 20.1 - Cinnamon

[deeaycee]

Looking for a way to unlock my linux box with bluetooth. this doesn't seem to be a popular/wanted feature. yours is the newest code I've found.
after running sudo ./install.sh, i get

Distribution: Linuxmint Unsupported system please install dependencies yourself, sorry for the inconvenience Dependencies: python3 python3-pip bluetooth libbluetooth-dev tar PIP Dependencies: pybluez If you feel this OS should be supported please create a feature request in the issue section Install has worked!

when I do
sudo apt insatll python3 python3-pip bluetooth libbluetooth-dev tar
i get

`Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
python3 is already the newest version (3.8.2-0ubuntu2).
bluetooth is already the newest version (5.53-0ubuntu3).
tar is already the newest version (1.30+dfsg-7ubuntu0.20.04.1).
python3-pip is already the newest version (20.0.2-5ubuntu1.3).
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libbluetooth-dev : Depends: libc6-dev but it is not going to be installed or
libc-dev`

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

this is a fresh linux mint install. i don't have any broken packages that I know how to see.

Any advice?

Thank you!

Hi there thanks for the request, I believe you just need to add libc-dev to the apt install.

BU-V1 and the future BU-V2 are not being worked on right now because of all the college work I have. And yes surprisingly not many people have really done this and I would have expected GNOME or KDE to at least do something like it, albeit my implementation is very simple and CLI based (which will change with BU-V2 when I have time).

So along with Linux deepin I will add this to my to-do list when the summer holidays begin.

Kind regards, Ethan

I also think that @lordmorgul has submitted BU-V1 to the arch repo, which I would like to say thanks for that! If that wasn't you who did it then my apologies, I'm just guessing by the people watching my repo :)

I tried to install that but there is some dependency problem that I will have to figure out later. If it doesn’t work, I will patiently wait and see if you can do anything with it. Thank you for sharing your talent.
