Suggested software for use case

[ehcorn]

Looks like neither install properly, something about dependencies? I tried building by changing the architecture in the build file (zotero has unmet dependencies for arm) but I had high hopes for zettlr as it’s available in arm64 for Debian systems. Again however I ran into problems (dependancy I think) I’ll investigate later. As a side note, yay the AUR helper suggests forcing a build and makes this process of trying easier as you don’t need to edit a build file, just hit Y which may go against the ethos of arch but I like it

I noticed flatpak was enabled in the system so I looked for options available. It appears that anything that has an arm64 build is distribution agnostic via flatpak so I’ve now got zettlr installed. I found an app that connects to zotero and downloads my bibliography and I can always manage my library online with zotero so for now I think that will have to do. If anyone stumbles across this looking for grad school writing workflows for Linux that aren’t computer science send me a message! I never stop learning.

Side note for flatpak I like, I’d you search in the terminal it appears to only show you software you can actually run on your architecture as opposed to the software centre that shows all matching AUR or repository packages regardless of build requirements.
