So you've done

wget -qO- https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-deb/releases/download/apt-get/install.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt update
sudo apt install zotero

and you're getting the error at the last step? I see you've capitalized "Zotero" in your message, did you perhaps type

sudo apt install Zotero?

Package names are case-sensitive, it must be "zotero"

What is the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list.d/zotero.list?

What is the output of sudo apt update?

@LabGecko those are not mine. I can't speak for what version lives there, or whether they're still live. If you want mine (which is, I think, the most up to date and well maintained version, although there is a snap installation that is almost on par), you will need to make sure zotero is not currently installed from packages, remove (at least) http://ppa.launchpad.net/bartbes/love-stable/ubuntu (but also any other repo that might supply zotero), and re-do the installation instructions from https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-deb/

Bonjour, je vient d'installer zotero sur mon Chromebook, mais je n'arrive pas à l'utiliser, et je croix que c'est un problème de la manière de téléchargement, puisque zotero est bien installé, pouvez vous m'aidez à l'utiliser.

I have followed the instructions [1] and I have been able to install Zotero in a Chrome OS 84.0.4147.110.

In my case, the Zotero Connector works without port-forwarding (Step 4). Zotero standalone uses port 23119. I have been unable to find where Zotero Connector defines its port. In any case, it works flawlessly.

Hey! I just got zotero installed on my chromebook using this process--including the forwarder--and everything is working fine except for the connection to google docs. When I go to put the citation in everything is fine but the footnote just says {updating} and doesn't change. Is there something I should do? Thanks!

Hi there,
Thank you very much for all the help you already provided.
I did everything you just explained, and here is what I get :

wget -qO- https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-deb/releases/download/apt-get/install.sh | sudo bash
OK
deb https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-deb/releases/download/apt-get/ ./

Could you please help me to know what is wrong ? Should I download something somewhere, as the Terminal seems to be looking for a certain package ?

Many thanks in advance.

Update : I just ran the uname -m command, and found out that my Chromebook runs on aarch64, so I understand that Zotero is not supported on my machine...
So sad :'-(

It does have that, and I can't reproduce it not working.

My build scripts were uploading an old version rather than the one with the checks. That's now fixed.

@clarara: What does uname -m show?

What did the console output after curl -sL https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-deb/releases/download/apt-get/install.sh | sudo bash?

That's reassuring in a sense; it means that the setup script correctly identified Zotero can't run on your architecture. I'm afraid that for you however that is the end of the road.

Hi,

I have problem installing zotero on my chromebook x86_64. I never used linux before which probably is the reason. I'm not really sure what I'm doing.
I followed the instructions here: https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-deb

And came up with this:
sudo apt install zotero
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package zotero

I got the install.sh but I have no idea as of why it's not working. May someone please help me out? I need to run zotero on my chromebook! Thanks!
