I changed the Wiki last night to reflect a problem I came across with ADE 2.0.1 in a new installation of Manjaro. Everything installed fine but I kept getting the annoying cannot connect to fulfilment server error message when trying to download a borrowed library book. After a too lengthy process of troubleshooting I found that lib32-gnutls was required and was not a dependency of wine, at least not on Manjaro and therefore probably not on Arch either. Once installed all works well.

This morning I decided to post in this thread as well as the Wiki, and on reviewing the posts was reminded of Pat David's blog, which I visited. I could have saved myself some time and aggravation had I visited yesterday, as Pat had posted a recent update detailing the lib32-gnutls problem. Pat was the first to report success on Ubuntu 18.04 and posted the steps on his blog. The main differences to the steps in the Wiki were resolving a problem with windows codecs not being installed correctly in Ubuntu and using the full dotnet installer rather than the net installer. I never got around to posting this in the Wiki itself, which I will endeavour to do soon as some other modifications are necessary. Thanks to Pat for his contribution, and also for his acknowledgement of and link to the Mobileread Wiki in his blog.
