Can you please explain this a little further? I right click on the
google-musicmanager-beta_current_x86_64.rpm and select “extract with
auto sub dir” from the dolphin right click menu.
I then end up with several directories in my download folder and I can
not run the program.
Did you mean we are to extract the contents to the proper directory’s
as listed in the rpm, for example /user/bin, /opt, /etc?
Hi
Correct, I extracted the rpm , then cd to into the extracted directory
and then down into /opt/google/musicmanager and run the app from there,
else just create a softlink to it from your users home directory;
cd
mkdir musicmanager
cd musicmanager
cp ../Downloads/google-musicmanager-beta_current_x86_64.rpm .
rpm2cpio google-musicmanager-beta_current_x86_64.rpm | cpio -vid
cd ../bin
ln -s /home/myusername/musicmanager/opt/google/musicmanager/google-musicmanager
google-musicmanager

Hi
I also note there is a desktop file, so if you copy that to your
~/.local.share/applications directory, then edit the path for the
executable and also the path/name of the icon (it’s
called product_logo_48.png) this will add a menu entry next time you
login.
