Open a terminal and paste the following command to add the PPA repository:
-For Ubuntu Jaunty (9.04):
sudo sh -c "echo 'deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/stani/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list"
-For Ubuntu Intrepid (8.10):
sudo sh -c "echo 'deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/stani/ppa/ubuntu intrepid main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list"
Then, add the GPG key:
sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 7B0FB2CA
And finally, install sK1 in Ubuntu Linux:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install sk1
Download sK1 .deb for Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty) without adding the PPA repo
Additionally, you can just download the Ubuntu .deb if you want. But before installing it, you need to firstly install some dependencies, so open a terminal and paste this:
sudo apt-get install tcl8.5 tk8.5 python-imaging python-imaging-tk python-liblcms python-reportlab
Then you can download and install sK1 .deb:
Ubuntu 32 bit |
Ubuntu 64bit
A note from the PPA maintainer: this is the development version of sK1 and the packages have not been tested by a critical mass. In case you have problems, you should report them on the
sK1 forums. The packaging is not perfect yet. For example there will be no entry in the start menu. This will be fixed in a next release. I've sent Igor from sK1 the necessary files to resolve this issue. So for now start sK1 by typing "sk1" in the run dialog (Alt+F2) or in a terminal.
As a final remark: you need to remove your
~/.sk1 folder, otherwise sK1 might have troubles starting up.
