Describe the bug

During installation, I get this error, which exits the installation unsuccessfully.
chmod: cannot access '/opt/Insomnia Designer/chrome-sandbox': No such file or directory

Hmm, I get the same thing. I wonder if it's because there is a space in the path /opt/Insomnia Designer/chrome-sandbox?
Please fix your download links for Designer on Linux. They lead to nowhere. Whoever put out the blog post should check the links, esp. for Linux.
Dear all, I think that somehow the Insomnia installation scripts for Debian fail to provide the missing chrome-sandbox, either by providing it physically, or by finding links to it in a previously installed package.
But what would be the best temporary solution to this problem ?
For instance, I got chrome-sandbox under/usr/share/code/chrome-sandbox
Should I do a symbolic link to it from /opt/Insomnia ?
Of course that won't repair the broken installation process. Should we tinker with the Debian installation scripts to correct the problem ?
Or maybe it would be better to download the source code for Insomnia, compile it all and then fix manually the missing links ?
