On CentOS 8 operating system, Barcode Xpress License Manager may not work since some cryptographic protocols are disabled by default. In this case, to install a license on the local computer, required mode can be enabled with the following command (run it as a root):

update-crypto-policies --set LEGACY

After installing the license, default mode can be enabled with the command:

update-crypto-policies --set DEFAULT

See command description:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/security_hardening/using-the-system-wide-cryptographic-policies_security-hardening

It should also run on other Linux distributions, as long as they fully satisfy the requirements listed in this section.

We do not recommend using Snap to install Barcode Xpress because necessary external dependencies don't exist in the Snap container.
