Per the subject line any recommendations on F38 would be helpful.
I had both installed on my Dell XPS 13 L322 laptop, but bc the upgrade
failed I've had to do a fresh install and restore my data.
Viber does provide an rpm:
rpm can be found here https://www.viber.com/en/download/ (look under the
Windows & others section for the Fedora version)
Instructions here:
https://help.viber.com/en/article/set-up-viber-on-your-desktop
However, it fails on my laptop with no clear guidance on why or what
dependencies are missing.
How do you expect to get useful advice without describing what you tried and
pasting the error message?
Brilliant!
