rstudio on Ubuntu missing libasound2.so.2

[bshor]

I successfully installed rstudio-server from your repository on Ubuntu 24.04 (in a distrobox container). But I just tried to install rstudio desktop, and while it installs, on startup it complains of a missing library:

rstudio: error while loading shared libraries: libasound.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[mwt]

Hi, that sounds like the package is missing a dependency. I just download the packages and put them in the repo. So, the rstudio team would need to add that as a dependency for that to be fixed here.

A search of github and the web doesn't indicate problems with this library. Strange. I agree this is an upstream issue. I posted this to their Github issues page.
