I am really new to Linux but can do quite a bit but nowhere am I an expert. I have a basic install of Ubuntu 22.04 fully updated (apt update && apt upgrade). I downloaded the raw 2.0.0p24 and SCP to the Ubuntu server. Followed the instructions here: Installation on Debian and Ubuntu which are supposed to be for Debian and Ubuntu but cannot get installed. I did try a manual install ‘dpkg -i package_name.deb’ and this worked with a lot of missing packages. I had to run the 'apt --fix-broken install and remove 2.0.0p24. Finally got 2.0.0p24 to install with the command in the documentation (apt install /path/check-mk-raw-2.0.0p3_0.focal_amd64.deb) after figurin out that I needed to specify the path even though I was in the directory with the package but there were still missing dependancies (libperl5.30 and libreadline5). Is there a newbie install document that gives literally a step by step of what to run to get this working? Just want to get a POC up and running and determine if this is worth purchasing.
You tried to install the 20.04 package (focal) on the 22.04 Ubuntu release.
This will not work.
Please use the “old” LTS 20.04 for some POC.
It is possible that one of the next patch releases are also available for 22.04. The support for 22.04 was added 5 days ago to the github repository.

Thank you Andreas. I really did not want to use an older version of Ubuntu but will try this next at least for the POC.
