How Install Without PPA
Asked by
Drew Trott
I recently upgraded to 16.04 Xenial and now cannot use the repos to update FFS because they have not been updated to Xenial. I have downloaded and decompressed the tar.gz file from the FFS site, but I am not sure what to do with it because it does not contain configure or make files. I have found the existing location of the two binaries, FreeFileSync and RealTimeSync (they are in usr/bin), so I can copy the new binaries over them (as root/sudo). But I don't know (1) where the rest of the files go (or how to find them), or (2) what else I have to do, if anything, to make these files operate like the old ones.
(edit 20160826 to include file locations and for clarity)
