Crossover for Linux Mint

Keep trying to install crossover on a fresh linux mint install and keeps getting install package failed. Seems to give errors with from UserDict import DictMixin as MutableMapping
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'UserDict'
dpkg: error processing package crossover (--install):
installed crossover package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1
Processing triggers for doc-base (0.11.1) ...

Hi Andrew,

It looks like you only have a license for CrossOver 20.0.4, which likely won't work on newer Mint versions.

Best,
Meredith

Hi

How can I see if the newer version will work with my system or not? So far what I have downloaded will not install and yes I downloaded it from the website

dpkg: error processing package crossover (--configure):
installed crossover package post-installation script subprocess returned error
exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
crossover
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

How do I fix this, Even trying to install i3wm I am getting this since I had attempted to install crossover. It seems to have messed up my system

Andrew, maybe you were missing some dependencies? I suggest you try what is described in the following site: https://phoenixnap.com/kb/ubuntu-fix-broken-packages

If I remember rightly, I kept getting a similar error when I first installed Crossover on my Linux Mint 20.2 desktop pc. Back then I installed version 22.1.1 and I'm pretty sure the installation proceeded after I closed and ignored the error message. The error couldn't have been too important because intallation completed ok and Crossover works perfectly for me. I've since upgraded to version 24.
