I'm attempting to run my FriendlyElectric Raspberry Pi as a VPN router so I'm running a fresh install of Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS   I started off having to install the armhf architecture and core libs dpkg --add-architecture armhf apt-get update apt-get install libc6:armhf libstdc++6:armhf Then I ran     root@Rodriguez:~/downloads# sudo apt-get install ./GlobalProtect_deb_arm-5.1.1.0-17.deb Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information...
