How to track time using zeitgeist in Ubuntu 20.04

  • 772

I have no clue how to use zeitgeist after installing it with apt. It seems to be a tracker that dumps the data somewhere but there is no viewer!! The so called “GNOME Activity Journal” and zeitgeist-explorer are not found in apt.

  1. You can download this zeitgeist-explorer package with dependencies from 18.04 LTS repository and install it manually with

    cd ~/Downloads
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/z/zeitgeist/python-zeitgeist_1.0-0.1ubuntu1_all.deb
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/z/zeitgeist-explorer/zeitgeist-explorer_0.2-1.1_all.deb

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ./python-zeitgeist_1.0-0.1ubuntu1_all.deb ./zeitgeist-explorer_0.2-1.1_all.deb

    and then use as it was planned.
