*** REVIEWED PROCEDURE AND VALIDATED WITH UBUNTU 22.04.03 LTS (21.Nov.2023) ***
Edit the source file with:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
# Add entry to repository that contains the old lib
deb http://cz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic main universe
# Alternative link if upper does not work
deb http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu bionic main universe
If the system complains about unknown GPG public Key when trying to execute the
sudo apt-get update
and you observe error similar to this one:
Execute the following command where the last HEX string corresponds to the returned to you (might be different):
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 3B4FE6ACC0B21F32
The above command should result in success
Repeat the installation procedure with:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libwebkitgtk-1.0-0
Troubleshooting
Upon running spoon.sh
if other error appear like Failed to load module “canberra-gtk-module” run the following command:
sudo apt install libcanberra-gtk-module libcanberra-gtk3-module

libwebgtk is the linux port of the webkit browser extensions.
You can still install it, but you need to add the older ubuntu package repository
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
Add this entry to the file and save:
deb
http://cz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
bionic main universe
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libwebkitgtk-1.0-0
How to install the libwebkitgtk package on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS?

Hi there,
just testing out the latest pdi-kettle on ubuntu 22.04 LTS. But getting on start:
$ /opt/data-integration/spoon.sh #######################################################################WARNING: no libwebkitgtk-1.0 detected, some features will be unavailable Consider installing the package with apt-get or yum. e.g. 'sudo apt-get install libwebkitgtk-1.0-0'#######################################################################
But libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 is no longer available on ubuntu 22.04 and so I tried to install later versions of libwebkitgtk. But getting always the same error on startup.
For what is libwebkitgtk needed and if it is important - how can I solve that issue?
