The ''only'' tricky part is to install the dependencies. Once that is solved, installing from source should be as easy as {{Codeline|./configure && make && make install}}.

(Note - the {{Codeline|./bootstrap}} part was added by someone who doesn't really know what he's doing but had to use that command before {{Codeline|./configure}} would work, running on Ubuntu 16.04.)
