I’ve been trying to use Jami on my machines running Linux Mint for over a year. But the DEB installer still tries to remove system packages. Considering that LM is the top 3 Linux desktops in the world, should this be taken more seriously?

Can you please post a screenshot that shows the system packages that would be removed?

However, many people have installed Jami using the DEB installation file for Linux Mint, and no problems have been experienced.

> **[Linux Mint — Jami documentation](https://docs.jami.net/setup/linux-mint.html)**

If you experience problems after installing Jami using the DEB installation file for Linux Mint, please submit an issue at the [Issues · savoirfairelinux · GitLab](https://git.jami.net/groups/savoirfairelinux/-/issues) page.

Thank you

It seems that the Jami developers are working on a fix at the [https://review.jami.net/c/jami-client-qt/+/31189](https://review.jami.net/c/jami-client-qt/+/31189) patch.

After the patch is merged and a new Jami version is released, please test again.

The changelog should show when a new Jami version is released that includes the fix.
