Well, why do you assume that you can install packages designed for Fedora or OpenSuse without issues on Mageia?
This is the same for all distro-specific packages: You can install them, as long as you don't get any errors or know what the errors mean and how to workaround them.
In your case no package in the currently configured repositories provides the facility "libXtst".
- Code: Select all
[doktor5000@Mageia7VM ~]$ urpmq --whatprovides libXtst
No package named libXtst
[doktor5000@Mageia7VM ~]$
Hence you would have to try an installation ignoring the dependencies using urpmi --allow-nodeps
I'd suggest installing simplenote via AppImage:
