I was interested to know whether anyone has tried to install the Linux version of Citrix Receiver, ideally as a Chrome extension / app, using antiX13. I primarily use web-based apps but have a requirement to use some other applications, via Citrix Receiver, for work.
It would be great if I could use this via antiX and then not have to worry about any of my work Windows based devices.
Thanks in advance for the assistance.

I got it working here on a 32-bit system. The 64-bit version of Citrix Receiver has a lot of 32-bit dependencies which was a drag.
I downloaded the 32-bit deb from here:
========= SCRAPER REMOVED AN EMBEDDED LINK HERE ===========
url was:"https://www.citrix.com/downloads/citrix-receiver/receivers-by-platform/receiver-for-linux-121.html"
linktext was:"https://www.citrix.com/downloads/citrix ... x-121.html"
====================================
I needed to install libxp6 (via synaptic or apt-get) because the Citrix app depends on it. It also depends on OpenMotif which I installed following the instructions here:

linktext was:"http://karuppuswamy.com/wordpress/2010/ ... on-ubuntu/"
====================================
I just ran:I didn't need to create the libXm.so.4 symlink because it was already there.
I installed the downloaded deb with:I ran Applications --> Preferences -->"Update Icewm menu". Then"Citrix Receiver" showed up under Applications --> Internet. The app launches and the window opens but I have no idea if it actually works. It looks like you need to make a connection in order to get it to do anything interesting.
I image you could get it to work on a 64-bit system but there are a handful of 32-bit libraries you will need to install in addition to the instructions above.

I just ran:
Code: Select all
$ sudo apt-get install libmotif-dev
I installed the downloaded deb with:
Code: Select all
$ sudo dpkg -i icaclient-12.1.0_i386.deb
