  1. I managed to get it working through Wine. Something like this:

    # Upgrade wine (https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu)
    cd "${HOME}/Downloads"
    wget -qO - https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key | sudo apt-key add
    sudo apt-add-repository "deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ $(lsb_release -sc) main"
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable
    
    # Download Winetricks
    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks
    chmod +x winetricks
    
    # Install .NET 4.6
    WINEARCH=win32 ./winetricks dlls dotnet46
    
    # Install the JRE
    # First, download the Windows offline java installer from https://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
    
    # JRE seems to only install under WinXP
    WINEARCH=win32 ./winetricks winxp
    WINEARCH=win32 wine jre-8u231-windows-i586.exe /s
    
    # But other stuff only works under Win7, so switch back
    WINEARCH=win32 ./winetricks win7
    
    # Install SemanticMerge - download from https://users.semanticmerge.com/Download
    WINEARCH=win32 wine SemanticMerge-2.0.149.0-installer.exe
    
    # Run it!
    wine "C:\users\$USER\Local Settings\Application Data\semanticmerge\semanticmergetool.exe"
    
    # Once it's open, in the settings make sure to set the JRE path.
    # It should be something like "c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_231\bin"
  2. It looks like https://www.semanticmerge.com/linux hasn't been updated in a long time. If you follow the directions there for Ubuntu, it turns out that the certificates to sign the apt repos have expired. Is Linux still a supported platform for SemanticMerge?
