Can't install GeoDa in Ubuntu 21.04

I'm trying to install Geoda in my linux but I'm having some problem:

GeoDa: https://geodacenter.github.io/download_linux.html

I tried to install the ligdal26 but I didn't succeed.

Does anyone knows the solution? Or is GeoDa only avaiable to the LTS version?

Linux version:

$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 21.04
Release:    21.04
Codename:   hirsute

Update : I have tried the method from N0rbert and it work for me on Ubuntu 21.04.

In Ubuntu 21.04, I've installed GeoDa in a VirtualBox machine from an Ubuntu 20.04.3 ISO.

Another solution might be to create a USB key (Live or persistent) with Ubuntu 20.04.3 ISO. I've tested it with a live USB (you can install software but the configuration is reset when you reboot). I find it great for tests if I write the steps.

The following commands allow me to install GeoDa :

sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo apt update
sudo apt-get install freeglut3 libpq5 libgdal26

Then I've clicked on geoda_1.18-1focal1_amd64.deb for installation and search for GeoDa in Applications.

Note : I'm an user of other Linux distributions. I've also installed GeoDa with Linux Mint 20.02 (it is based on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS). I don't remember if the steps are the same. It was just a test.

I had no luck with gdebi to install directly on Ubuntu 21.04.

sudo gdebi geoda_1.18-1focal1_amd64.deb

Dependency is not satisfiable: libgdal26

Try installing geoda_1.18-1focal1_amd64.deb using gdebi.

The gdebi utility automatically pulls in required dependencies.

First, install gdebi:

sudo apt-add-repository universe
sudo apt update
sudo apt install gdebi-core

Then install GeoDa using:

sudo gdebi geoda_1.18-1focal1_amd64.deb

Welcome to the Linux version of Dependency Hell. Check the geoda website to see the prerequisites. Install them.

You could try installing the dependencies (and their dependencies) and ..., that will either work, or fail if the required version 17 of foolib is unavailable for your system.
