Ubuntu Installation

This package is available for Ubuntu. It is hosted in 2 places; LaunchPad and the OpenSUSE Build Service (OBS). Both hosts should contain up-to-date packages for all currently maintained versions of Ubuntu. The only differences between the two is that LaunchPad is the development focus for the packaging source of this package for all Debian-based distributions supported, and OBS has packages in repositories for many other distributions. There is really no difference between the two hosts when just consuming the package, but to aid a choice, a rule of thumb could be:-

  • If you only use Ubuntu then use the LaunchPad repository.
  • If you use multiple distributions choose the OBS repository.
