["The Russells" <dkrussell387@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm trying to install the latest version of Deja-Dup (38.2) into  Ubuntu
Server 18.04 and Ubuntu Desktop 16.04.  I have downloaded the
deja-dup-38.2.tar.xz file to my /usr/local/src folder.  I extracted it using
Ubuntu's archive utility.  Now, I don't know what to do next.   Don't see
any of the typical installation files (configure, make, etc.) in any of the
extracted folders.

 

Will you provide me with details of the steps to go from the extracted
files/folders to a complete installation?  Should I uninstall the Ubuntu
supplied version (34.?) before installing 38.2?  I can't get the Ubuntu
supplied version to work properly and I hope that V 38.2 will solve those
problems.

 

I have done a lot of web searching  and have not been able to see any
details on installing from a "tar.xz" file.

 

Thank you very much.
