  1. Best Answer

    These instructions assume you have a 32-bit system:

    sudo apt-get install build-essential git libgnome-keyring-dev fakeroot rpm libx11-dev libxkbfile-dev

    Setup node.js:

    curl --silent --location https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_0.12 | sudo bash -
sudo apt-get install nodejs

    Clone the Atom repository:

    cd
git clone https://github.com/atom/atom

    If you need the latest release:

    git fetch -p
git checkout $(git describe --tags `git rev-list --tags --max-count=1`)

    Now build and install:

    cd atom
sudo script/build --create-debian-package

    Use sudo above to avoid permission denied errors during the build process. Also, if you have a problem at the build command, run sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/node node /usr/bin/nodejs 10.

    Or install Atom via a PPA:

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/atom
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install atom
