How To Install Komikku on Fedora 39

In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Komikku on Fedora 39. Komikku is a sophisticated manga reader application designed for the GNOME desktop environment. It’s a free and open-source software that caters to manga enthusiasts who prefer a clean, intuitive, and adaptive interface for their reading experience. Whether you’re a casual reader or a manga connoisseur, Komikku offers a seamless blend of functionality and aesthetics, making it a top choice for Linux users.

This article assumes you have at least basic knowledge of Linux, know how to use the shell, and most importantly, you host your site on your own VPS. The installation is quite simple and assumes you are running in the root account, if not you may need to add ‘sudo‘ to the commands to get root privileges. I will show you the step-by-step installation of the Komikku manga reader on a Fedora 39.

Prerequisites

Before diving into the installation process, let’s ensure that you have everything you need:

• A server running one of the following operating systems: Fedora 39.
• It’s recommended that you use a fresh OS install to prevent any potential issues.
• You will need access to the terminal to execute commands. Fedora 39 provides the Terminal application for this purpose. It can be found in your Applications menu.
• A network connection or internet access to download the Komikku repository.
• A non-root sudo user or access to the root user. We recommend acting as a non-root sudo user, however, as you can harm your system if you’re not careful when acting as the root.

Install Komikku on Fedora 39

Step 1. Before diving into the installation process, it’s crucial to prepare your Fedora system. Start by updating your system to ensure all existing packages are up to date, using the command:

sudo dnf clean all
sudo dnf update

Step 2. Installing Flatpak.

Flatpak is a next-generation technology for building and distributing desktop applications on Linux. Fedora Workstation comes with Flatpak pre-installed, but if you’re using a different Fedora variant or need to confirm its presence, here’s how to proceed:

sudo dnf install flatpak

Flathub is the central hub for Flatpak apps, offering a wide selection of software. To integrate Flathub into your Fedora system, follow these steps:

flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

Step 3. Installing Komikku on Fedora 39.

With Flatpak and Flathub ready, installing Komikku is straightforward:

flatpak install flathub info.febvre.Komikku

Step 4. Accessing Komikku on Fedora.

Once the installation is complete, you can launch Komikku from the applications menu or by running:

flatpak run info.febvre.Komikku

The first time you launch it, Komikku will guide you through configuration like setting up download locations for manga and adding sources to fetch manga from.
