New to bluefin - how to install anything natively

[tolga_erok]

hi all

new to bluefin and have no idea how to install google chrome natively, question is, how please

PS also want to install lolcat and fortune for konsole/terminal

[j0rge]

brew install fortune lolcat will get you those apps, for chrome open the software center and search for chrome and click the install bottom on the top right:

thanks

how to do the following:
wget https://mega.nz/linux/repo/Fedora_39/x86_64/megasync-Fedora_39.x86_64.rpm && sudo dnf install "$PWD/megasync-Fedora_39.x86_64.rpm"

the process is infuriatingly SLOW

We don’t use dnf to install apps on Bluefin. Have you tried to get it in software store application? MegaSync exists here as far as I can tell:

Or, here: Install MEGAsync on Linux | Flathub

Thank-you for your feed back

Unfortunately, a small handfull of flatpak apps are some what, buggy and in this case, megasync is one of them.

What other useful features or additions bluefin has to install various packages:

• ujust
• homebrew?
• ?
• ?

You can try using BoxBuddy and Distrobox to install app inside container and then export it from here. If it doesn’t work for MEGASync, standard Silverblue rpm-ostree install command can be used too instead of dnf, but, from what I’ve heard, using rpm-ostree is a somewhat difficult way to manage software on atomic fedora.
