如何在Ubuntu 16.10上安装Scratch 2。或17.04（64位）？

我需要在具有离线Scratch 2的Ubuntu 16.10 / 17.04上安装Adobe Air。很多年来，Linux不支持Air。因此，有几种解决方法。直到Ubuntu 16.04都对我有用（使用Air二进制安装程序）：

# install i386 necessary libraries
$ sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386 libstdc++6:i386 libxml2:i386 libxslt1.1:i386 libcanberra-gtk-module:i386 gtk2-engines-murrine:i386 libqt4-qt3support:i386 libgnome-keyring0:i386 libnss-mdns:i386 libnss3:i386
# install keyring
$ sudo apt-get install libgnome-keyring0:i386
# make keyring visible for Air
$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0
$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0 
# download Adobe Air installer
$ wget  http://airdownload.adobe.com/air/lin/download/2.6/AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
# run it
$ sudo chmod +x AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
$ sudo ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin

但在16.10 / 17.4上以安装程序错误结束：

无法安装Adobe AIR。在系统上找不到用于创建deb软件包的Debian工具（例如dpkg-deb或ar）。

这显然是错误的错误消息，dpkg-deb并且ar都已安装：

$ dpkg-deb --version
Debian 'dpkg-deb' package management program version 1.18.10 (amd64).
$ ar --version
GNU ar (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.28

来自的Adobe Air安装日志文件 /root/.appdata/Adobe/AIR/Logs/Install.log

因此，我找到了另一种通过deb软件包安装Adobe Air的方法（我以前不知道）：

$ wget http://airdownload.adobe.com/air/lin/download/2.6/adobeair.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i adobeair.deb

和瞧！Adobe Air已安装在Ubuntu 16.10 / 17.04上。
现在安装Scratch 2。

# Find the latest Scratch AIR file link from https://scratch.mit.edu/scratch2download/
$ wget https://scratch.mit.edu/scratchr2/static/sa/Scratch-456.0.1.air
$ sudo Adobe\ AIR\ Application\ Installer ./Scratch-456.0.1.air 

同样的错误：

无法安装Adobe AIR。在系统上找不到用于创建deb软件包的Debian工具（例如dpkg-deb或ar）。

就像一个没有维护Adobe AIR的容貌不能起到新的dpkg-deb和ar了。

关于Ubuntu 16.10 / 17.04上的Scratch 2脱机的任何提示吗？

这两个小时我一直在玩。首先，我尝试跟踪Adobe Air Application Installer和查找内部发生的情况。

$ sudo strace -s 500 -t -o air_scratch.txt Adobe\ AIR/Versions/1.0/Adobe\ AIR\ Application\ Installer ~/Downloads/Scratch-456.0.1.air 

我发现这一行：

read(18, "dpkg-deb: error: treewalk root /tmp/FlashTmp.3TWnKI/build/DEBIAN is not a directory\n", 4096) = 84

似乎新手dpkg无法像上一个那样处理链接。可以通过在运行Adobe Air Application Installer之前将包装器脚本放置到~/air/bin/dpkg该PATH变量并更改变量来解决此问题。不幸的是，如果没有sudo，则无法安装Scratch，并且更改PATHsudo并不容易。

然后我发现了一个波兰纳税人论坛，他们不满纳税人正在解决类似的问题（他们需要在Debian / Ubuntu上运行财政部的一些Air应用程序）：https : //forum.dug.ne​​t.pl/viewtopic.php?pid = 310108。

在这个论坛的深处，我发现了一些提示，如何在Ubuntu 16.10 / 17.04上运行Scratch 2（甚至没有adobeair.deb安装）。

这是我的最终可行解决方案，已通过全新安装测试。

# install necesary i386 libraries

$ sudo cp Scratch-456.0.1.air /opt/adobe-air-sdk/scratch/
cp Scratch-456.0.1.air /tmp/
cd /tmp/
unzip /tmp/Scratch-456.0.1.air
$ sudo cp /tmp/icons/AppIcon128.png /opt/adobe-air-sdk/scratch/scratch.png

创建启动器：

$ cat << _EOF_ > /usr/share/applications/Scratch2.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Exec=/opt/adobe-air-sdk/adobe-air/adobe-air /opt/adobe-air-sdk/scratch/Scratch-456.0.1.air
Icon=/opt/adobe-air-sdk/scratch/scratch.png
Terminal=false
Name=Scratch 2
Comment=Programming system and content development tool
Categories=Application;Education;Development;ComputerScience;
MimeType=application/x-scratch-project
_EOF_

$ chmod +x /usr/share/applications/Scratch2.desktop

就是这样。由于Air正在将Scratch 2应用程序解压缩到~/.appdata/edu.media.mit.Scratch2Editor文件夹中，因此首次运行时间会更长一些。
