Installing applications of tar.gz and bzip2 in ubuntu

Hello poh...

paano po ba mag install ng tar.gz anf bzip2 applications sa ubuntu???
please help poh

[loell]

depende kasi yan, kung ang archive ay binary or source.

first upack the archive,

if it's a source then it's most likely

./configure
make
make install


if it's a binary archive then there's likely a

./install.sh


either way, a readme file should indicate what you should do.

Each compressed folder (like tar.gz) has a unique way of being installed. The most common ways to install them are mentioned by loell.

What specific tar.gz or bzip2 file do you want to install? =)

First thing you do after extracting it is to look for the readme file. It will give you specific instructions on how to install it and tell you what the dependencies are.

ok poh...try ko po mag install...

marami akong file na tar.gz pero hindi ko alam kung paano mag install...

[killer_d76]

what i usually do is..

1. extract the tar.gz files to desktop

2. open up terminal
- type sudo -s
- it will be asking for your password
- this will give you and access as an admin

3. then open up the extracted tar.gz files on your desktop and look for a file that says: install.sh

4. drag and drop this file to the terminal that you have opened up earlier then hit enter on your keyboard.. this will automatically install everything for you.
