Re: how to install a source file?
That is not an easy question to answer unless someone who just happened to install that exact file on a system simalar to yours decides to help out. Also the link you provided does not appear to work for me "Error 403 - Forbidden"...
Generally you would need to first extract the contents of the tar file into a folder. If you are lucky there will be a README with instructions on how to install from there. Otherwise you will have to do your research to figure out what you need to do. Sometimes it is as simple as running...
Code:
./configure
make
sudo make install
in teminal from the directory that you extracted the files into. But I wouldn't count on it being that easy.
