Mathieu Benoit f32fa6c111 [FIX] qemu desktop: snap packages froze the build for 30 minutes
A graphical Ubuntu VM stopped making progress, with no error, on "Unable
to contact the store, trying every minute for the next 30 minutes".
Nothing in the log says why, and the install just looks stuck.

The cause is ours. We disable snapd a few lines earlier, to stop its
refreshes during the install. Then gnome-core recommends "firefox", which
on Ubuntu is only a transitional package whose postinst runs "snap
install" -- against a snapd we just stopped.

It is a RECOMMENDS, with alternatives. So we exclude the snap packages and
name epiphany-browser, a real .deb. Excluding firefox alone was not
enough: apt fell back to chromium-browser, a transitional package too, and
Cinnamon froze the same way on thunderbird. Measured on the VM: with this
list, GNOME (844 packages) and Cinnamon (1167) pull none, without an apt
error.

Une VM Ubuntu graphique cessait d'avancer, sans erreur, sur « Unable to
contact the store, trying every minute for the next 30 minutes ». Rien
dans le log n'en dit la raison, et l'installation paraît simplement figée.

La cause est nôtre. On coupe snapd quelques lignes plus haut, pour
empêcher ses rafraîchissements pendant l'installation. Puis gnome-core
recommande « firefox », qui n'est plus sur Ubuntu qu'un paquet de
transition dont le postinst lance « snap install » — contre un snapd qu'on
vient d'arrêter.

C'est un RECOMMENDS, avec alternatives. On écarte donc les paquets snap et
on nomme epiphany-browser, un vrai .deb. Écarter le seul firefox ne
suffisait pas : apt retombait sur chromium-browser, paquet de transition
lui aussi, et Cinnamon figeait pareillement sur thunderbird. Mesuré sur la
VM : avec cette liste, GNOME (844 paquets) et Cinnamon (1167) n'en tirent
aucun, sans erreur apt.

ERPLibre

ERPLibre is a CRM/ERP platform including automated installation, maintenance, and development of open source modules of the Odoo community version. It is a "soft-fork" of the Odoo Community Edition (OCE), meaning it aims at contributing back upstream. It is based on a set of production-ready modules, supported by the Odoo Community Association (OCA) and an ecosystem of specialized companies. This solution ensures digital sovereignty in a local environment while integrating pre-trained Generative Transformers (GPT), bringing an additional dimension to data management and automation.

Installation in production

Easy installation on Ubuntu or Debian using Docker

This has been tested in Debian 12 and Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.

Note : This is meant for a test environment, on a local network or similar environment not directly exposed to the Internet.

  1. Make sure Docker and nginx web server are installed:
    sudo apt install docker.io docker-compose-v2 nginx

  2. Get the latest ERPLibre Docker compose file:
    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ERPLibre/ERPLibre/master/docker-compose.yml

  3. Install and run ERPLibre with Docker running as a daemon (web server):
    sudo docker compose up -d

  4. Open the final installation step at this web page :
    http://[server IP]:8069/web/database/manager
    odoo_first_installation.png

  5. Finish the installation by providing a database name, email and password. then click on Create Database. Depending on your system resources this may take more than 2 minutes without feedback ! Check your browser loading indicator.

  6. Next, the web page will reload itself, and you should see the Applications list in ERPLibre:
    odoo_application_list.png

    You can now personalize your ERPLibre installation.

For more information, read Docker guide.
