Version 28 non Root problem

Post by elmurdoc » 2018-08-30, 16:37

Hi

i have this problem, in my work we use Linux call Canaima (this is a governmental version), which is really outdated and i don't have a root user

Until today the only way to use and update Palemoon was download the tar.bz2 unzip the folder create a shortcut to palemoon and use it, but today i download the version 28 and doesn't execute, it never open, i don't know how i can make it work without a root password :(

I have the previous version 27.9.4 (32 bits)

How far are you prepared to go? How much are you prepared to risk? How many people are you prepared to sacrifice for victory?
Are you willing to die friendless, alone, deserted by everyone? Because that's what may be required of you in the war that is to come.

It appears that the 5.1 and 6 releases of that OS are based on Debian 8 and 9 respectively, and the PM binary or packages from my OBS repo should work on those. 4.X and older are aged out of contention, though: https://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=canaima

If you have an outdated version, is there any possibility of updating it?
