How to install PeaZip on Ubuntu?

rated 0 times [ 1] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 14981 / 2 Years ago, thu, march 31, 2022, 6:56:57

I want to install PeaZip for a specific purpose, which I can't fulfill with any other archive manager. I downloaded and installed it by using both dpkg -i & Gdebi. Now I can't start it, because I can't find the launcher. Please provide a solution.

For some reason some of the older GTK debs are configured for the KDE desktop. They include a desktop icon, but install it to the KDE directories. I fixed this by just linking the desktop file in the correct directory.

Just run sudo ln -s /opt/kde3/share/applications/kde/PeaZip.desktop /usr/share/applications/.

Alternatively, you could just copy the shortcut with sudo cp /opt/kde3/share/applications/kde/PeaZip.desktop /usr/share/applications/

Newer versions found on their download page seem to have fixed this problem.
