sudo alien -i sqldeveloper-*.rpm fails
dh_usrlocal: error: debian/sqldeveloper/usr/local/bin/sqldeveloper is not a directory make: *** [debian/rules:7: binary] Error 25
Debian 11, sqldeveloper-21.4.0-346.2239.noarch.rpm
@Grelo4ka I just noticed that I wrote "Ubuntu/Debian" in the description of this gist. I guess I assumed it would work for Debian since Ubuntu is based on Debian, but I've not tested it on Debian. I should probably remove that :)
On the other hand, it looks like Ubuntu 20.04 is based on Debian 11? So maybe that's not the problem:
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS
Release: 20.04
Codename: focal
$ cat /etc/debian_version
bullseye/sid
I used these steps successfully last week to install SQL Developer 21.2.1 on Ubuntu 20.04; I guess you could try installing an older version of SQL Developer to see if it works.
If you figure out the problem with the newer versions feel free to leave a comment and I can update this gist.
Good luck!
I am also facing same error while installing sqldeveloper-21.4.0-346.2239.noarch.rpm on debian 11.
error: debian/sqldeveloper/usr/local/bin/sqldeveloper is not a directory
make: *** [debian/rules:7: binary] Error 25
I have also tried to install sqldeveloper-19.1.0-094.2042.noarch but it also gives same error.
Hi every one,
I am facing quite the same issue trying to install sqldeveloper-21.4.2-018.1706.noarch.rpm. It fails with both alien or rpm commands.
Here is the trace:
warning: RPM v3 packages are deprecated: sqldeveloper-21.4.2-018.1706.noarch
Package build failed. Here's the log:

Did someone figured out how to deal with it ?
I am on Debian 11.
Cheers
