Libby - ebook reader that allows library checkouts (in USA)
#1
Libby is a e-book reader that in the US you can checkout copyrighted books from public libraries.

Libbys instructions for install are:
https://snapcraft.io/install/libbylinux/debian

sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
sudo snap install snapd
sudo snap install libbylinux

This fails missing squashfs:
error: system does not fully support snapd: cannot mount squashfs image using
      "squashfs": ----- mount: /tmp/syscheck-mountpoint-3961583142: unknown
      filesystem type 'squashfs'.

      dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.


Debian has squashfs packages which I installed:
squashfs-mount
squashfs-tools
squashfs-tools-ng
squashfuse

cat /proc/filesystems does NOT have squashfs meaning the kernel doesnt have the driver loaded.
It's not in /lib|lib64/modules so my guess its not compiled nor profiled by the packages above.

apt update/upgrade yielded:
******************************************************************************
*
* The base-files package cannot be installed because
* /lib64 is a symbolic link and not pointing at usr/lib64 exactly.
*
* This is an unexpected situation. Cannot proceed with the upgrade.
*
* For more information please read https://wiki.debian.org/UsrMerge.

******************************************************************************


dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/base-files_13.6_arm64.deb (--unpack):
new base-files package pre-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/base-files_13.6_arm64.deb
Error: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


(as always devs, if you're trying to do something...tell me what.  I dont use --unpack a lot.  unsure why it failed)
root@pinenote:~# dpkg --unpack /var/cache/apt/archives/base-files_13.6_arm64.deb
yielded
* The base-files package cannot be installed because
* /lib64 is a symbolic link and not pointing at usr/lib64 exactly.

Time to play with other presents.
(libby makes PineNote a user product.  XournalPP does, liferae does, ...  It's close but still lots of hacking.)
