I installed Nonpareil (a special calculator emulator) from the Snap store, but can not find the program to run it. (Using Ubuntu 20.04.3)

These directories now exist :
/snap/nonpareil-cm
/var/snap/nonpareil-cm
but I don't know what to find there that might be used to start the program.
I tried snap run nonpareil-cm but received the error message

error : cannot find app "nonpareil-cm" in "nonpareil-cm"


Even rebooted -- made no difference.
Thanks for any help.

According to its snapcraft.yml file it provide the following executables:

  • nonpareil-cm.21
  • nonpareil-cm.25
  • nonpareil-cm.32e
  • nonpareil-cm.33c
  • nonpareil-cm.34c
  • nonpareil-cm.35
  • nonpareil-cm.37e
  • nonpareil-cm.38c
  • nonpareil-cm.38e
  • nonpareil-cm.41cv
  • nonpareil-cm.41cx
  • nonpareil-cm.45
  • nonpareil-cm.55
  • nonpareil-cm.80
  • nonpareil-cm.modutil
  • nonpareil-cm.nonpareil
  • nonpareil-cm.uasm

So you have to launch the main executable - nonpareil-cm.nonpareil and select needed calculator or run single calculator of needed model by command like nonpareil-cm.41cv.


Note: issue about adding desktop-files to Snap is filed to GitHub.

    Thank you, N0rbert. That works exactly as you describe and solves my problem. Thanks, too, for filing the issue about desktop-files at GitHub. "Super", as my son would say. Thanks again for your help.
