If your distro was arch, you most likely have the nightly build available on the AUR
Aur and pacman are 90% of why I use arch.
Also fyi to OP: never install software system-wide without your package manager. No
sudo make install
, nocurl .. | sudo bash
or whatever the readme calls for. Not because it's unsafe, but because eventually you're likely to end up with a broken system, and then you'll blame your distro for it, or just Linux in general.My desktop install is about a decade old now, and never broke because I only ever use the package manager.
Of course in your home folder anything goes.
😁I prefer yay to search and install stuff from AUR using a single command 🥰 and if you choose the endeavour flavour of arch, then you have yay preinstalled 😋👌🏻
