Failed to install packages from Purism SWstore

[eagle-eye]

Trying to install from Purism SWstore (zulip, firefox, brave) all failed with the same error
Unable to install brave
cannot perform the following tasks:

How to solve this issue?

[JR-Fi]

Ignore the Store if at all possible. It’s not well maintained. Use terminal (sudo apt-get install zulip firefox brave etc. packages/apps).

Too bad, I like the store, seems like I just use it to update the OS.

Zulip:

Installing the Zulip desktop app | Zulip help center

1. Enter the following commands into a terminal:

sudo curl -fL -o /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/zulip-desktop.asc \
    https://download.zulip.com/desktop/apt/zulip-desktop.asc
echo "deb https://download.zulip.com/desktop/apt stable main" | \
    sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/zulip-desktop.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install zulip

These commands set up the Zulip Desktop APT repository and its signing key, and then install the Zulip client.

2. Run Zulip from your app launcher, or with zulip from a terminal.

Firefox ESR:

Install Firefox on Linux | Firefox Help

Install Firefox .deb package for Debian-based distributions (Recommended)

To install the .deb package through the APT repository, do the following:

1. Create a directory to store APT repository keys if it doesn’t exist:

sudo install -d -m 0755 /etc/apt/keyrings

2. Import the Mozilla APT repository signing key:

wget -q https://packages.mozilla.org/apt/repo-signing-key.gpg -O- | sudo tee /etc/apt/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.asc > /dev/null

If you do not have wget installed, you can install it with:

sudo apt-get install wget

3. The fingerprint should be 35BAA0B33E9EB396F59CA838C0BA5CE6DC6315A3. You may check it with the following command:

gpg -n -q --import --import-options import-show /etc/apt/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.asc | awk '/pub/{getline; gsub(/^ +| +$/,""); if($0 == "35BAA0B33E9EB396F59CA838C0BA5CE6DC6315A3") print "\nThe key fingerprint matches ("$0").\n"; else print "\nVerification failed: the fingerprint ("$0") does not match the expected one.\n"}'

4. Next, add the Mozilla APT repository to your sources list:

echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.asc] https://packages.mozilla.org/apt mozilla main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mozilla.list > /dev/null

5. Configure APT to prioritize packages from the Mozilla repository:

echo '
Package: *
Pin: origin packages.mozilla.org
Pin-Priority: 1000
' | sudo tee /etc/apt/preferences.d/mozilla

6. Update your package list, and install the Firefox .deb package:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install firefox

Brave:

Release Channel Installation

Debian, Ubuntu, Mint

sudo apt install curl
sudo curl -fsSLo /usr/share/keyrings/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg] https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/ stable main"|sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/brave-browser-release.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install brave-browser

You don’t think epiphany works well? Is brave more secure?
