Installation of Lepton is pretty simple on many operating systems and
distributions supporting pre-built binary packages. Just use your
favorite package manager to install the package. For example, on
Debian or Ubuntu, you could use synaptic, apt-get,
or aptitude for installation. It doesn’t matter which
interface you use, GUI or CLI. For instance:
sudo aptitude install lepton-eda
However, in some cases or on some systems you may want to install Lepton from source code. The order is as follows.
cd the-directory-with-lepton-eda autoreconf -ivf && ./configure && make && sudo make install
Call for autoreconf is not needed if you download sources as
a tarball of some version.
ldconfig as well:
sudo ldconfig
