   Sorry for the inconvenience. We're aware of this issue and are working on fixing this issue. Till then you can use the workaround as mentioned here #14171

   or use the steps below. (by @jsanta and @PlamenSh)

   • Download the .deb installer file
   • In the folder you downloaded the file run:
     dpkg-deb -R ./Brackets.Release.1.12.64-bit.deb Brackets
   • Edit file Brackets/DEBIAN/control and replace libcurl3 with libcurl3 | libcurl4
   • Rebuild .deb installer running dpkg-deb -b Brackets Brackets-fixed.deb
   • Install Brackets using the fixed installer running sudo dpkg -i Brackets-fixed.deb

   @shubhsnov It might be worth considering renaming this issue in addition to pinning it. I came here looking for a response to this exact issue and completely overlooked it on the Issues page, only discovering it by using the search field, and only then after removing the default "is:open" filter.

   Edit: I should've been more specific. My exact suggestion is that it be renamed such that "libcurl" or "libcurl3" appears in the title.

   sed 's/libcurl3/libcurl3 | libcurl4/' Brackets/DEBIAN/control

   should be:
   sed -i 's/libcurl3/libcurl3 | libcurl4/' Brackets/DEBIAN/control # edit in-place (GNU sed)

    Just to update that none of the above works on Debian Buster with the latest Brackets version (1.14.1-17752).

    Can be installed, but won't load.
    Debian 10 (Buster), x32/i-386
    Packages, that must be updated in order to install:

    • curl3 -> curl4
    • libpango1.0-0 -> libpango-1.0-0
    • libgconf, gconf2-common, gconf-service 3.2.6-4 -> 3.2.6-5

      @shubhsnov
    

    So I found a workaround while installing for my wife after moving to Debian 10 aka buster.

    First I had to install libpangox-1.0-0 & libpango1.0-0 using apt ( if you get errors: sudo apt --fix-broken install)
    Then using the code previously mentioned:
    dpkg-deb -R ./Brackets.Release.1.14.64-bit.deb Brackets
    sed -i 's/libcurl3/libcurl3 | libcurl4/' Brackets/DEBIAN/control
    dpkg-deb -b Brackets Brackets-fixed.deb
    sudo dpkg -i Brackets-fixed.deb
    Then:
    Go to /opt/brackets/ or wherever it's been installed and change ownership of "chrome-sandbox" to root using chown or whatever methodyou prefer and chmod it to 4755.
    Seems to be running fine.

    The installer wasn't working initially but when I updated my pango library, it worked. Thanks!
