Hi Stephen, I answered this before for you.  Check your emails on July 15, 2023.  For everyone else, the thread is https://mail.cgl.ucsf.edu/mailman/archives/list/chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu/.... tl;dr for now, you need to find a libffi7 package and install it before installing ChimeraX on Debian 12.     HTH,     Greg On 8/9/2023 2:20 PM, Tom Goddard via ChimeraX-users wrote:

It looks like the ChimeraX Ubuntu 22.04 distribution is supposed to list a dependency on libffi7 as seen in this list of ChimeraX Linux dependencies

https://github.com/RBVI/ChimeraX/blob/develop/mkubuntu.py

Did you follow the installation instructions on the ChimeraX download page?

sudo apt install ~/Downloads/ucsf-chimerax_1.6.1ubuntu22.04_amd64.deb

If you installed in a different way you might not get the dependencies listed in the .deb file.  Maybe there is some other issue on Debian-12.  Our Linux expert is on vacation until next Monday.

Unfortunately, the missing dependency libffi7 is not part of the distributiojn.

Please Advise.

Thanks in advance.
