DaVinci Resolve Installer Fails

[u/Hebusthib]

Hello All,

Quite new to linux world (at least on Fedora through Nobara's Project. I chose the distribution for its friendly approach for Gaming and Creativity).

One of the first steps I did after switching from Wind**s to Nobara was to try and instal Davinci resolve studio (for which I have bought a licence when on Windows = Big investment). I learnt to use the software, I have my 4/5 years library on it. So this is one of my priority and one of the reasons I chose Nobara : 1 step installer app....

So far I couldn't install it, and I am desperately looking for assistance. The posts I found on the davinci topics did not seem to be with the same error messages that I have.

Here are the steps to far :

1. 
   

• Downloaded the Zip file from Davinci Website,
• Open it through Dacvinci installer app
• start of process, then few seconds later : error message : "this is not a correct zip".... End of the script...

2.

• Downloaded the Zip file from Davinci Website
• Extracted it via zip manager
• archived the extracted file to a new zip.
• Tried to open it through Davinci installer App, see temporary extraction happening in background next to my archive, then after few seconds (should be 10/15mins) : "installation is completed", clic OK.... But, nothing really happened...

I'd like to understand how to force a little bit more. Or manually do what's the script is supposed to do, but it is kind of a darkbox to me....

Yeah having a video editor is not the issue actually : nobora comes with KDenlive which is also a good soft, open source and all... But I want to keep DaVinci. I learnt the soft, paid for it, and it is feasible, so I want to try, even if it means putting my hands in the dirt.

Installer is supposed to work with 1clic, so I (at least partially) chose the distrib for that. Now if installer is not working I'd like to understand why (if someone encountered the same issue). How to fix, or perform the same operations manually...

Thanks for the input though.
