Install KMyMoney Basics - Compile?

  • 772

I'm a new user in Ubuntu 18.04. I'd like to install the latest KMyMoney and I've looked at some advanced discussions, but I need something basic. For instance:

  1. Must I compile anything? I understand I need some KDE tools but must I compile them or just install them?

  2. This recent link (install kmymoney 4.8.1 on kubuntu 18.04) suggests I also need "git." Is that true for my install? I do want to be able to update it with security and bug fixes and possible improvements in the future.

  3. If #2 above is necessary, then can someone point me to some really beginner knowledge of Git?

  4. Is KMyMoney available by apt-get or is this something I must download and process?

Thank you.

    You should install as much as possible from the ubuntu repositories.

    To find packages search here:

    https://packages.ubuntu.com

    Kmymoney is in the repos

    https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=kmymoney

    So ....

    sudo apt install kmymoney
