No idea how to get those (and why doesn't it find them by itself). Tried to install apt, and pacman doesn't find it.

Any Manjaro compatible package that would just install, or a pacman address?

Here goes... I got this from dpkg, just like the first time:

Code:

Preparing to unpack axolotl_1.5.0-1_arm64.deb ...
Unpacking axolotl (1.5.0-1) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of axolotl:
axolotl depends on libc6:arm64 (>= 2.31); however:
  Package libc6 is not installed.
axolotl depends on libgcc-s1-arm64-cross (>= 4.2); however:
  Package libgcc-s1-arm64-cross is not installed.

I had some issues with updating the system (and the fix described here helped, I'm up to date. I somehow expected it would resolve this, but it didn't.
Being a Mint guy (nee Ubuntu), I'm not quite familiar with how these things are resolved in absence of apt... frankly, even with apt, I never had anything to do with anything lib*c*, there be dragons for me. Just tell me what to install so I can try the axolotl_1.5.0-1_arm64.deb again.

But just for the heck of it I tried it as is and, well, it seems to work - I got as far as username. Will test it out during the day.

 are we talking about mobian or manjaro ?

Manjaro Phosh.
Here's the progress so far:
- installed (with the above libc* errors), runs
- registered as the main device
- managed to add contact (daughter with signal on android phone and a w11 laptop)
- exchanged a few messages and sent a photo from the phone, which promptly appeared on both her clients
- tried to add my desktop Signal as a linked device, used the trick from page 6 here (megapixels, point to screen, scan the QR, copy the content), but when I paste the translated code (begins with sgnl:, checked that), and tap ADD, it returns to the previous page and nothing happens.

Thanks for clarification and posting your progress! Signal is (again) changing a lot in their server backbone environment and that might interfere with linking Signal Desktop... I'll keep you posted about that issue.
Cheers!
