From the innoextract official install instructions the stated dependencies are (taken verbatim and then edited):

- CMake >= 2.8 or newer
- Boost >= 1.37 (including development headers)
- liblzma (from xz-utils, including development headers)
- iconv (optional, via glibc, uClibc, or a separate libiconv)
These dependencies can be installed on an Ubuntu system with the following command (as detailed on the innoextract official install instructions page):
sudo apt install build-essential cmake libboost-all-dev liblzma-dev
Please consult your operating system's documentation and related texts for information on how to install the required dependencies.
On Linux systems, and other similar systems, issue the following commands in your terminal:
git clone https://github.com/dscharrer/innoextract.git
cd innoextract/cmake/
cmake ..
make
sudo make install
Please note that this requires that git be installed on your system.
The innoextract version must be >= 1.8 for it to be able to extract the MPQ from the GOG Diablo installer.
innoextract --version
Should return something similar to the following:

In a terminal, run the following command: innoextract --info 'setup_diablo_1.09_hellfire_v2_(30038).exe'
(adjust file name as appropriate)
This should return:

Download and install Inno Setup Extractor

Select the Import Data
option from the list
In the file browser that appears, navigate to the directory from step 2 of the Inno Setup Extractor and select DIABDAT.MPQ
This may take a few seconds, the file browser will close automatically when the import is complete
If you would like to play the Hellfire expansion, repeat this import process for the hellfire.mpq
, hfmonk.mpq
, hfmusic.mpq
, and hfvoice.mpq
files in the hellfire
subdirectory

Note: The import process copies the MPQ files into external storage for the DevilutionX app. Once you have verified that the app is working, feel free to delete the DevilutionX directory to free up space.
