Arduino-pro-ide: doesn't open on Ubuntu 19.10

[OMGdaDPS]

I try to open the electron app for the IDE, after extracting, but it opens in my hex editor.

run it usinig terminal
sudo (location)/arduino-electron
i tested it now its working

omw

yeah, that seems to work. I wonder why I was able to just double click it and it worked, on KDE Neon, but not on vanilla Ubuntu 19.10

[mwz86]

now i'm testing it
there is some problems:
Failed to start arduino language package
Error: no core is installed for arduino uno #_#

[OMGdaDPS]

i was told to install clangd by using sudo snap install clangd --classic. it worked for me

I installed Ubuntu 9.10 last night together with Arduino Pro IDE to test it, it works perfectly with my user, (no Sudo)

What did you do, just untar the archive and put it somewhere, go into the folder and double click the file labeled "arduino-electron"?

I think it has something to do with maybe me installing a few other programs, and that has done something. Because like I said, it tries to open in my hex editor. I of course can choose a different program to try and open it with, but none have worked so far. The closest that I have gotten to it working was using "run software" in the "open in other application". It gives me a spinning "working in background circle, but the doesnt do anything.
This is all of course, only on one of my machines. I have tested it on one other laptop so far, and it worked without a hitch on that one. I did exactly what I asked you if you had done.

I can confirm this with older versions. Now, we ship the app with clangd bundled into it.
