Installing LS-PrePost on Ubuntu
I'd like to install LS-PrePost on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
The most recent version of LS-PrePost (4.6) isn't available packed for Ubuntu, but version 4.5 has a version that was packed for Ubuntu 16. Download is here: ftp://ftp.lstc.com/outgoing/lsprepost/4.5/linux64/
I downloaded and unpacked the .tgz, followed the readme directions and I can't get it to run.
Am I doing something wrong, or is it futile to try making something compiled for 16 work on 18?

Can you be more specific? What exactly did you do, and what happens when you try to run it? At a minimum, it looks like you will need to deal with the fact that it wantslibpng12whereas 18.04 provideslibpng16
