cannot execute: required file not found

I downloaded FontForge and i tried to run it but system showed this message, it says file not found, when it is indeed in the directory, i also had the same problem with firefox, i downloaded tar.bz2.tar archive of firefox, decompressed it, and then when i tried to run it, i saw the same message. Edit: I run Ubuntu

Ok what about Firefox? It wasn't an AppImage

Get it from the repos with "pkg install firefox"

It needs snap, and snap needs the system to be booted with systemd, which is not possible with proot

Oh it's a proot. Then you're double screwed 💀 Some packages just won't run at all, and it appears to be the case for Firefox

Snap won't work inside proot you can actually fetch from Debian repo, but that'll require another work on apt repository the only way is to install Firefox via pkg, expose $PREFIX/bin in rootfs, and then use Firefox from $PREFIX/bin
