Black Duck version 2021.8.0 requires Detect 7.4 in order to run. Please ensure you meet this minimum version requirement when upgrading.

Desktop Scanner on CentOS-7

As a result of updated dependencies, the latest version of Desktop Scanner will not run on CentOS-7. Therefore, a different RPM was created specifically for the CentOS-7 build which will be running with an older version of Electron 12. We will maintain this separate CentOS-7 build for as long as Electron 12 is supported.

In addition to our current downloads, a link has been added on the Tools page specifically for the CentOS-7 download. The regular RPM, debian package, macOS and Windows installers are available as usual.
