f you goto the vivaladi page, and look up its helpers, it gives a
loooooong curl command to fetch them, but pasted into bash shell and
return is pressed, you wind up with zero action and an empty prompt. A
ctl+c gets you back your normal prompt. But thats all experimental any
way since dpkg outputs quite a string of its own dependencies not met:

So its not going to work on a 32 bit wheezy, ever. I'll update this
machine to a 64 bit stretch if and when the network works again. Armbian
is now working on a rock64, but thats the only variety of nix for arm64
that will accept and use a gateway statement in its net config and it
took me a week to make that work. I put another drive in an older dell
dimension and installed 64 bit stretch, but was never able to get it to
accept a gateway statement. No errors, it just ignores it unless applied
by hand using route. So its back on the old wheezy drive which Just
Works(TM) That machine isn't quite sacrificial as its the box I use to
program the mesa fpga based CNC cards, so its needed eventually. Its
actually got a parport! And them is scarce on new machines today. :(
Thanks Curt.
