Install Scratch on Ubuntu 14.04

Download the Adobe Air and Scratch files from:

https://scratch.mit.edu/scratch2download/

The following libraries are needed:

sudo apt-get install libxt6:i386 libnspr4-0d:i386 libgtk2.0-0:i386 libstdc++6:i386 libnss3-1d:i386 lib32nss-mdns libxml2:i386 libxslt1.1:i386 libcanberra-gtk-module:i386 gtk2-engines-murrine:i386

Now you have to create a symbolic link to your gnome keyring:

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0

cd into the directory with the AdobeAIRInstaller.bin

sudo ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin

Now install Scratch 2:

sudo "Adobe AIR Application Installer" /path/to/scratch2/installer/Scratch-437.air
