Description:

This script is for installing german tax software from Buhl Software.

The program names vary: "t@x", "Steuer 2013" or "Steuersparer 2013".

It will install the "Konz" program before the Steuer program, so you dont have to do this afterwards.

 

Notes:

The warning about missing a PDF-viewer can be ignored, since the system viewer will be used.

On my PC POL could not detect that the installer still runs and says it probably crashed. In this case wait for the installer to finish and press next.

If you want to update the program with its internal updater it may not work. If this happens you have to try again. Sometimes it needs some times to make it work - seems to be some bug in the updater itself.

 

Please test and give me your feedback. For now I did test it on POL on Fedora.

Would be nice if you can provide: the OS, the Year and the Version ("t@x", "Steuer 2013" or "Steuersparer 2013").
