Unable to install OSCAR linux mint

Linux Mint 21 Vanessa based on ubuntu 22.04

Entered in terminal, and result:

~/Downloads$ sudo apt install ./oscar_1.4.0-Ubuntu22-amd64.deb
Reading package lists... Done
E: Unsupported file ./oscar_1.4.0-Ubuntu22-amd64.deb given on commandline

Is my syntax wrong?

Thanks for the help!

Can you list the name of the deb file ?
it seems what it is oscar_1.4.0-Ubuntu22_amd64.deb not oscar_1.4.0-Ubuntu22-amd64.deb.
(with a _ not - between 22 & amd).

do an
ls oscar*
Then copy - paste the filename.

Test I made : make a fresh install on a VM then download the file on the official web site. It works with the correct filename.

YES, it worked, Thank you so much!

[untoutseul05]

You're welcome.

You need to be in the directory that you downloaded OSCAR.
 
Once in the directory, issue the following command: sudo apt install ./oscar_1.4.0-Ubuntu22_amd64.deb.  

This will tell the apt command that it is a file and not to get it from the repository.

it is already fixed.
He / She was using a bad filename : oscar_1.4.0-Ubuntu22_amd64.deb vs oscar_1.4.0-Ubuntu22-amd64.deb
(with a _ not - between 22 & amd).
