Question #697063 on Keryx changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/keryx/+question/697063

john sylvanis gave more information on the question:
I downloaded and unzipped keryx_ubuntu_x86.zip on the library computer.
Unzipped, got into Win32 directory and clicked the executable. It came up
with the interface, with Debian and supported
OS, and, or course, I get an error message saying "Please create a project
in the plugin's supported OS". But when I get into Ubuntu and change
directory into Keryx_Ubuntu_x86/source/ and execute keryx.py, nothing
happens. Strange.
