    Tried:
    sudo gdebi ~/Downloads/ncid_1.13-1_armhf.deb
    Wrong architecture 'armhf' -- Run dpkg --add-architecture to add it and update afterwards

    So:
    sudo dpkg --add-architecture armhf
    sudo apt-get update

    sudo gdebi ~/Downloads/ncid_1.13-1_armhf.deb
    Dependency is not satisfiable: libicu67 (>= 67.1-1~)
    sudo aptitude install libicu70:armhf
    sudo aptitude install libicu-dev:armhf
    sudo apt install libicu67=67.1-1 # Not found ...
    dpkg-query -l | awk '{print $2 " Version Number " $3}' | grep libicu
    libicu-dev:arm64 Version Number 70.1-2
    libicu-dev:armhf Version Number 70.1-2
    libicu70:arm64 Version Number 70.1-2
    libicu70:armhf Version Number 70.1-2

    What do I need to do to get around the 'Dependency not satisfiable ..." ?
    Is it even possible to run NCID-1.13-1 in an RPi4 under Ubuntu 22.04 64bit OS?

    Thanks a bunch for this wonderful software I have been running in a Raspbian RPi3!

    I'm confused, and I think the installer is too.

    My guess is that it would be easiest for you to install the few -dev packages needed to get the include files, and then compile NCID from a source download.

    Compile instructions can be found here
    https://ncid.sourceforge.io/doc/NCID-UserManual.html#instl_deb_comp
    and you will use "make ubuntu" and "make ubuntu-install" as the last steps.

    You should install the official Raspbian Pi OS.

    The official supported Raspbian Pi OS downloads include 64-bit versions. The NCID armhf and noarch install packages can be used to install NCID. Select the packages you need.

    Thank you both for your replies!

    @ed_attfield: I will try to compile from source.

    @jlc: I already use the official Raspbian OS and NCID armhf that works well. This is my attempt at running it under RPi Ubuntu 22.04 64 bit, as a foray into this new environment.

    I had previously installed NCID under an older Ubuntu but in an AMD64 PC, so I thought of experimenting. Any advice you can offer for my experimental path could possibly help others too.

    Looking around for similar issues with my error and found this thread. IIRC I had the same problem with the " sudo gdebi ~/Downloads/ncid_1.13-1_armhf.deb " step. The problem was it had been updated to "1.13-2" to gdebi was being told to look for the now non-existent file.
