How to install Nipper on Ubuntu 22.04

Before installing Nipper, ensure that your system is running Ubuntu 22.04 and that you have administrative privileges.

Nipper requires a valid Qt6 platform plugin, e.g. Qt6 Wayland and the Qt6 WebEngine Core binary. Install these by running:

sudo apt install -y qt6-wayland libqt6webenginecore6-bin

To ensure the installer has the correct permissions, run the following command in the directory where the nipper installation file is located:

sudo chmod +x ./nipper*

We use

./nipper*

to denote the nipper .deb package you have downloaded from the Titania customer portal.

Now, install Nipper using the following command:

sudo apt install -y ./nipper*

Once the installation is complete, you can start Nipper by running:

nipper

This will launch the command-line interface (CLI) version of Nipper. If you prefer to use the graphical user interface (GUI), run:

nipper-gui

If the application does not start, ensure that all dependencies are installed correctly and that the installation was successful.

If you encounter package dependency errors, try running:

sudo apt --fix-broken install

If Nipper fails to launch, check for missing dependencies using:

ldd $(which nipper)

Ensure that the executable is in your system's path by running:

which nipper

To remove Nipper from your system, use:

sudo apt remove --purge nipper
