https://github.com/mecure-image /mercure.git is asking for username and password

If I try in debian git clone --branch latest-stable https://github.com/mecure-image /mercure.git github is asking for username and password. Something seems to be wrong, but what?

There is a typo in your path, and there should not be a space between the path and the repo name:

git clone --branch latest-stable https://github.com/mercure-imaging/mercure.git

BTW, here is the link to the mercure support forum (not sure how many people are still looking at the GitHub Discussions board):

Hi @tblock79 there was a lot of typo errors. The blank and the missing 'r' are from me. The real problem was the mercure-imaging , which I got from an example. Thanks for your help!

I cuold download the git, but if I run ./install docker I got the following error message.
Invalid operation system! This mecure version requires Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, 22.04 LTS Detected operation system = 13

I am using Debian 13.

Maybe you have update something in your script.

Hi @tblock79 , could you please look at my problem on the previous block?

mercure only supports Ubuntu, not Debian. You can find the installation instructions here:

@tblock79 , but Debian is based on Ubuntu.
Is there any way to install Mercure under Debian in an Docker container?

Hi @tblock79 , I also find out that the batch is using apt-key, which is depricated in new Ubuntu systems!
Would it not make sence, to update the install.sh to support actuall operation systems and Debian, too?

[tblock79]

This is not correct. Ubuntu is based on Debian, not the other way around. Since no enterprise support is offered for Debian, it makes more sense to focus on Ubuntu as the default deployment platform.

Yes, it should be possible to run mercure in a Docker container under Debian. However, you would need to do the setup manually, as the install script only support Ubuntu.

You are welcome to update the install script, add Debian support, and submit a PR.
