Installing Flowblade

NOTE: Since version 2.10 we no longer provide .deb packages for the application. The recommended way of installing the latest version if it is not available in your OS repository is to install Flowblade Flatpak.

Installing Flatpak from Flathub

Setup Flathub for your distro, there is an official guide here: https://flatpak.org/setup/ .

Go to Flathub Flowblade page and install from there.

Installing Flatpak from Flathub with commandline

Go to Flathub setup page and follow instructions for your distro.

Give the following command in a terminal application:

flatpak install https://flathub.org/repo/appstream/io.github.jliljebl.Flowblade.flatpakref

Installing using your OS appstore GUI application

Most Linux distributions provide GUI appstore application and Flowblade should generally be installable using those.

NOTE: Sometimes version in appstore is older then the latest version, which is always available at Flathub.

Installing from your OS repository using commandline

NOTE: The version available may not be the current latest release. Contact your OS to get latest Flowblade included in repositories if not already available.

Ubuntu, Debian and Linux Mint

sudo apt-get install flowblade

Archlinux

Latest release. Visit the Package info page or use terminal command:

pacman -S flowblade

Git version. Visit the AUR page or use terminal command:

yaourt -S flowblade-git

Installing using Development Repository Version

Flowblade versions >= 2.10 have been developed with MLT 7.12 or higher.

Flowblade is currently a 100% script application, and all the dependencies should be available in popular distributions, so in most cases it should be possible to install and run Flowblade without compiling anything.

Developer version may however be unstable or have new dependencies. If you fail to install developer version, please file a bug in Issues -tab.

  • Install Git in your system (Ubuntu command):

    sudo apt-get install git

  • Use Git to download Flowblade into a folder of your choosing by using the git clone command in your terminal:

    git clone https://github.com/jliljebl/flowblade.git

  • Install dependencies. See Dependencies doc for more information.

  • If you have Flowblade installed in your system, you probably have the dependencies installed, unless some new ones have been added.

  • Launch by running script .../flowblade-trunk/flowblade that was created in the folder where clone command was done.

  • Note that if you have Flowblade installed you will need use full path to repository version or navigate to the folder containing launch script and use command "./flowblade" to launch repository version instead of installed version
