I am beginner Please tell me how can i install .deb packages in Solus?
How i can install .deb files?

You can't. We aren't a Debian-based distro, nor do we use dpkg
. Solus has its own package format called eopkg
.
Edit: If you can tell us what you are trying to install we might either already have it, have a good alternative for it, or be able to help you install it.
You can download the tarball version: https://download.xnview.com/XnConvert-linux-x64.tgz
It's just an unpack and run kind of deal. If you want a menu item, some work necessary.
It's pretty straightforward, look at the screenshots : https://bluesabre.org/projects/menulibre/

Even easier to use:
From this post on the XnView forum, there is a link to the latest version of XnViewMP 0.93 in appimage format (direct link), XnViewMP which contains XnConvert.
So it's very easy, since it's just a matter of making the appimage executable via the file properties. I tested it and it works flawlessly, same as my installed XnViewMP.
To access the XnConvert function, select one or more images and then choose "batch conversion".
thanks
Hi, you can run .deb packages with help of docker. I created a small utility to automize this process. I use it to run some applications https://github.com/22116/debian_bridge
I get the below error when downloading the debian_bridge. Appreciate any guidance

Linuxlover Do you have the development packages installed? If not, you'll need to install them with sudo eopkg install -c system.devel
in order to compile programs.
Hello dear Solus users ,
I've installed debian-bridge with everything it need :
shoryu@shoryu ~ $ debian_bridge test

pas d'entrΓ©e control.tar.gz dans l'archive
gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file

Did i make an error of writing or something else?
shoryuken777 Normally you should restart your computer to make debian_bridge
work.
