HtmlToPdfConverter Linux Installation (not PDF Viewer)

[Amjad Khan]

I am trying to install the HtmlToPdfConverter on a Linux Ubuntu box version Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS. When I run the following command: 

$ sudo apt-get install libasound2 libatk1.0-0 libc6 libcairo2 libcups2 libdbus-1-3 libexpat1 libfontconfig1 libgcc1 libgconf-2-4 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 libglib2.0-0 libgtk-3-0 libnspr4 libpango-1.0-0 libpangocairo-1.0-0 libstdc++6 libx11-6 libx11-xcb1 libxcb1 libxcursor1 libxdamage1 libxext6 libxfixes3 libxi6 libxrandr2 libxrender1 libxss1 libxtst6 libnss3 libgbm1

I get the following error:

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree... Done

Reading state information... Done

Note, selecting 'libatk1.0-0t64' instead of 'libatk1.0-0'

Note, selecting 'libcups2t64' instead of 'libcups2'

Note, selecting 'libgcc-s1' instead of 'libgcc1'

Note, selecting 'libglib2.0-0t64' instead of 'libglib2.0-0'

Note, selecting 'libgtk-3-0t64' instead of 'libgtk-3-0'

Package libasound2 is a virtual package provided by:

  liboss4-salsa-asound2 4.2-build2020-1ubuntu3

  libasound2t64 1.2.11-1build2 (= 1.2.11-1build2)

You should explicitly select one to install.

E: Package 'libasound2' has no installation candidate

E: Unable to locate package libgconf-2-4

How should I resolve this issue. I tried installing the packages individually, but I get following error when I run ./chrome from the BlinkLibrariesLinux directory:[9596:9596:0222/202609.210383:FATAL:zygote_host_impl_linux.cc(116)] No usable sandbox! Update your kernel or see https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/linux_suid_sandbox_development.md for more information on developing with the SUID sandbox. If you want to live dangerously and need an immediate workaround, you can try using --no-sandbox.

How should I install HtmlToPdfConverter properly on my machine?

Hi Amjad,

Upon further analysis, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS has updated most packages to handle time using a 64-bit value, addressing potential issues like the Year 2038 problem. We have modified the package name and provided it below. Kindly try this on your end and get back to us if you need further assistance.

sudo update

sudo apt install -y libasound2t64 libatk1.0-0t64 libc6 libcairo2 libcups2t64 libdbus-1-3 libexpat1 libfontconfig1 libgcc-s1 libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-0 libglib2.0-0t64 libgtk-3-0t64 libnspr4 libpango-1.0-0 libpangocairo-1.0-0 libstdc++6 libx11-6 libx11-xcb1 libxcb1 libxcursor1 libxdamage1 libxext6 libxfixes3 libxi6 libxrandr2 libxrender1 libxss1 libxtst6 libnss3 libgbm1
