V3.2.2 for Raspberry Pi OS now available

Getting these errors on a pi3 trying to install 3.2.2_4:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 sonic-pi : Depends: libqt5gui5` (>= 5.8.0) but 5.7.1+dfsg-3+rpi1+deb9u2 is to be installed
            Depends: libaubio5 (>= 0.4.6) but it is not going to be installed
            Recommends: compton but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Check your Pi is connected to the interrnet while you do the install. Also check your os is up to date

You should be using Raspberry Pi OS released on 2020-05-27 or later.

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install ./sonic-pi_3.2.2_4_armhf.deb

(This assumes that the 3.2.2_4 deb file is in your current folder)

Thanks Robin. That was it, the Pi was running Stretch, hadn’t realised it needed to be Buster.

That’s great. Hope you enjoy using it now that you have it running.

How about 64bit? :grinning:

I have a build for 64bit but not released.

Woah, ok - so It would compile at least! Great to know!!

Got raspbian 64 bit running since some days, if you need a tester - let me know.

Hi all, I’m a new Raspberry Pi user. I use the Pi 4 8GB with 64-bit OS and I’ve been trying to install Sonic Pi 3.2.2 for a while but so far no luck. The 3.1 installation that’s packaged with the OS installs fine but when I use the 3.2.2 installer from the site and try to install that I get a message that I’m missing a bunch of packages (they’re ‘broken’). When I check these packages in the ‘Add / Remove Software’ tool it appears to me I have all the necessary stuff installed. Am I missing anything? Thank you for any help or pointers…

I haven’t released a build for the 64bit of version of SP 3.2.2 yet, and have held back as it is only a beta distro at present. There are a few tweaks necessary to get it to work. I might take another look and produce one. (which is possible). I certainly have a built version running on 64bit RP OS here.
Also working on 64bit version for SP3.3beta.
EDIT the reason it doesn’t work is that the package for 3,2,2 ib sonic-pi,net is a binary package. As such it contains only build for the specific 32bit RP OS

Thank you very much for your lightning fast reply! I’ll keep an eye out and just use 3.1 in the meantime. It’s got enough to keep me quite occupied already.

It will also have some problems, as it doesn’t properly support exteranl OSC or midi calls. (which is why I produced the 3.2.2 build in the first place). However it will work OK with the basics of Sonic Pi.
