I tried installing the deb file here but its not working in both tahrpup and BionicPup. So i'm requesting that maybe you guys can also help create a pet package for it.

Are these the 32bit versions?
The deb says it is 32bit software.

Or

64 bit versions with their 32 bit compatibility sfs loaded?

It's a python based progam, so is for 32-bit and 64-bit, to make it work install besides the .deb also python3.6 from PPM. EDIT: No, install python-gtk2 from PPM (not sure if it's enough, it may have other dependencies for the program to run properly).

How did you try to start it?
The binaries start with capitals eg FAHClient (which is the main one you need to run I think).

I got it running on FatDog by combining the debs and making an SFS. First though I had manually installed them, and had to mess about with the python libs as 'fah' was not being found. Never got my head round python, so not entirely sure what I did (or what was really needed). Will have to try it with no savefolder to check properly, but maybe later. I always have the devx loaded as well.

Anyway it runs:

My SFS attempt turned out to be waste of space. It was basically running off stuff I had forgotten to remove first, and failed to load again properly after I removed the offending bits.

Re-installed the 3 debs after converting to FatDog format. The viewer did fail though, so installed it manually.
I then had to move the contents of /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ (two directories) to:
/usr/lib64/python-2.7/site-packages/

All up and running again now.
It puts all its config and log files etc into root.
I am missing libcuda.so and libOpenCL (which make use of the GPU I believe) but this is not critical.
