[Solved] Telegram does not install

[Solved] Telegram does not install

Postby PauloCreto » Sep 25th, '16, 14:00

Hello everyone,

I'm using Mageia 6 from a DVD STA 1 installation

I downloaded the get-telegram package, but it does not install, or complete the whole process of downloading the package.

But when I go to Menu> Internet> Telegram he returns to the process of downloading the package again

Hi, currently get-telegram does not behave the same as e.g. get-skype (it does not automatically download/install telegram, you have to run it once as you recognised) although it's explained in the description of the package:

[user@openqa_mga6]─[16:44:43]─[~/MGA] rpm -qi get-telegram

[...]

Summary : Download and Install Telegram
Description :
This is a downloader script for Telegram.

This package does not contain any program files. By installing this
package you'll get the option to download and install Telegram from
telegram.org.
Removing this package won't uninstall Telegram from your system. You
can do this manually by removing "~/.TelegramDesktop/application"
directory.


I've proposed to the maintainer that the automatic download/installation will be added, but you should probably still open a feature request against cauldron for that if you want to have that:

Sorry about the delay, I was out of time.
Because of my bad English I do not get it right.
But I noticed that the download by "get-telegram" is not complete

When you install get-telegram, and then afterwards run
Code: Select all
get-telegram
in a terminal as regular user,
please describe what happens and post the output here.

Sorry for the delay.

I was able to install after updating the entire system and ran the binary on the Telegram Desktop website

Thank's doktor5000!

Best regards,

I tried to install Telegram but got error as below

Code: Select all
[jeevanism@localhost telepathy-morse]$ get-telegram
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
mv: cannot stat 'Telegram': No such file or directory


Any suggestions, please

Hi jeevanism.
It is not recommended to hijack an old topic for a new problem.
Next time please open up a new topic.
