Thanks for the link, quick download right now, wondering whether or not current Steuertipps will run.

[bevo]

Steuertipps will run if you use USB-stick installation.

First installation is no problem. The updates only worked using the USB installation.

untill now (last one I tried was 2011) Steuertipps was running well with wine.

[dsat]

bevo,

you can find offline updates for Steuertipps here http://www.steuertipps.de/support/updates. That worked me.

[bevo]

Yes, I know thats the way I do it. Did you check the version on the topline of the program?

I don't need crossover, so this question is only for my curiosity (and perhaps others).  I tried to install the 32-bit debian package on my 64-bit system with multiarch, and found a dependency issue:

Code Select Expand

root@imerabox:/tmp# dpkg -i crossover_11.3.1-1_i386.deb
Selecting previously unselected package crossover.
(Reading database ... 193433 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking crossover (from crossover_11.3.1-1_i386.deb) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of crossover:
crossover depends on perl5-base.
crossover depends on perl-modules.
crossover depends on python (>= 2.4).
crossover depends on python-gtk2.
crossover depends on python-glade2.
crossover depends on desktop-file-utils.

dpkg: error processing crossover (--install):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
crossover

When I searched for a debian package for perl5-base, I found no package in any Debian branch.  How have you resolved this -- did you force the crossover installation?

[devil]

The package is not multiarch-aware. The binary works, if you install all the needed packages besides it.
That raises the quetsion: does Ubuntu use multiarch already? If not, that solves the case. ("what is good enough for Ubuntu, will do it for Debian")

OK thanks devil -- that sounds right.

No multiarch for *buntu yet -- probably 13.04 will be multiarch.

EDIT -- there is a multiarch-support package in *buntu 12.10, so maybe they have multiarch already.

mit der .bin version funktioniert das ....
