The deb package cannot be installed under current Ubuntu 20.04

See original GitHub issue
reparing to unpack remarkable_1.87_all.deb ...
Unpacking remarkable (1.87) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of remarkable:
 remarkable depends on gir1.2-webkit-3.0; however:
  Package gir1.2-webkit-3.0 is not installed.

BUT:

$ sudo apt install gir1.2-webkit-3.0 
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Package gir1.2-webkit-3.0 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'gir1.2-webkit-3.0' has no installation candidate

It seems in 20.04 only gir1.2-webkit2-4.0 is available, see https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=default&section=all&arch=any&keywords=gir1.2-webkit&searchon=names

Just cloning the GitHub repo and running from there works fine though!

Yeah it’s not working on Ubuntu 20.04 for me aswell.

If you just want to get it working you can also use: snap install remarkable which is an unofficial upload from here.
