FYI: NNTPgrab installation on Ubuntu with PPA

Added by surfer about 4 years ago

As I cannot edit the page https://www.nntpgrab.nl/projects/nntpgrab/wiki/Ubuntu, I'm posting this FYI here:

Installation of NNTPgrab on Ubuntu is supereasy: just use the following commands:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:openftd/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install nntpgrab

That's all! You can now run nntpgrab_gui, nntpgrab_server and/or nntpgrab_server_gtk

It isn't recommended to use the PPA directly.
I is used from time-to-time to test changes in the NNTPGrab which are not supposed to be pushed to end-users yet.
Therefore it is recommended to only use the method mentioned on https://www.nntpgrab.nl/projects/nntpgrab/wiki/Ubuntu
