I was not able to install forticlient on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

~/Downloads/vpn $ sudo dpkg -i forticlient_vpn_7.4.0.1636_amd64.deb Selecting previously unselected package forticlient. (Reading database ... 234015 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to unpack forticlient_vpn_7.4.0.1636_amd64.deb ...

I found package "libayatana-indicator7_0.8.4-1+deb11u2_amd64.deb"

but I was not able to install it on Ubuntu 24.04.

Do you support FortiClient VPN 7.4 for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS?
