Split install for non-admin users
The target laptop account has no sudo. install.sh now runs without root once the system packages exist; if they're missing and the account can't sudo it prints the exact command and stops. New install-system.sh holds the one-time "sudo apt install python3-tk python3-venv git" for an admin account. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Target machine: **Linux Mint laptop**, single non-technical user. Day-to-day use

The target user's account is a **Standard** account (no sudo). Install is
|

therefore two steps: one system step by an admin, then the rest by the user.
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1 — system packages (admin account, once)
|
||||
|
||||
`python3-tk`, `python3-venv` and `git` are system packages. From an account with
|
||||
admin rights (Patrick's):
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd /path/to/DRK_Blutspende_Orte
|
||||
./install-system.sh # sudo apt install python3-tk python3-venv git
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Skip this if those three are already present.
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2 — the app (user account, no sudo)

`install.sh` does everything:

`install.sh` needs no sudo once step 1 is done. It:

1. `sudo apt install python3-tk python3-venv python3-pip git` (asks for the

password),

1. checks the system packages are there (if not, and the account *does* have
|
||||
sudo, it installs them; otherwise it prints the exact `install-system.sh`
|
||||
line an admin must run and stops),
|
||||
2. creates `.venv` and installs the pinned `requirements.txt`,
|
||||
3. writes `~/.local/share/applications/drk-blutspende-orte.desktop` with the
|

correct absolute paths and the bundled `icon.png`.

If you do both steps yourself in one go: run `./install-system.sh` as admin,

## What the pieces are
|
||||
|
||||
| File | Purpose |
|
||||
|------|---------|
|
||||
| `install.sh` | one-time setup (above). Safe to re-run. |
|
||||
| `install-system.sh` | admin, once: `apt install python3-tk python3-venv git`. |
|
||||
| `install.sh` | user, no sudo: venv + deps + menu entry. Safe to re-run. |
|
||||
| `run.sh` | launches the app from `.venv`; the `.desktop` entry calls this. |
|
||||
| `icon.png` | bundled launcher/window icon (red cross). Replace with the real DRK logo if wanted. |
|
||||
| `requirements.txt` | fully pinned, tested on Python 3.12. |
