This tutorial describes several ways to install EFL on your system. You will
only need to use one of these. Select your chosen method using the index on the
right.
-Many distributions offer EFL as an installable package from their default
repositories. In this case you only need to use your distribution's software
management system to install. However most versions of EFL in default
repositories are out of date and will not compile more recent Enlightenment
applications. If this is not an issue for you, read through the ["From
Distribution Repositories"](#From_Distribution_Repositories) section below.
-
-Distributions often provide a special repository maintained by users or a
method of integrating a bleeding edge version of EFL with your software
management system. This means that once installed you can keep EFL current just
by running system updates. If your distribution offers this, take a look at the
section ["Installing from a Special
Repository"](#Installing_from_a_Special_Repository).

The Enlightenment developers provide a pre-packaged source of EFL. Although
not bleeding edge it is up to date and considered stable for production
environments. You can download, compile and install it yourself by following
the instructions in ["Installing from Packaged
Source"](#Installing_from_Packaged_Source).

-To install the latest EFL available from a special Ubuntu PPA repository, add
the new repository with:
+You can install all the items you need from Ubuntu's official repository:
```bash
-sudo add-apt-repository ppa:niko2040/e19
+sudo apt install libefl-all-dev libeet-bin libeina-bin
```
-Refresh your repositories:
-
-```bash
-sudo apt update
-```
-
-And then install EFL and its development libraries:
-```bash
-sudo apt install libefl-dev
-```
-
-Ubuntu does not install by default the *gcc* compiler or *meson* or *ninja*,
so, before you can compile any apps, you will need to install those too:
-
-```bash
-sudo apt install gcc meson ninja-build
-```
+This will give you a working EFL installation.
-Also note that, due to EFL's fast development rate, it is unlikely the PPA
will provide by default the latest version of EFL. This means that many of the
examples in this documentation will probably need tweaking to work. If you
would like to install an up to date version of EFL, see the [Installing from
Source](#Installing_from_Packaged_Source) section below or the instructions for
[Installing from Git](#Installing_from_Git), also available below.
+However, the version in Ubuntu's official repositories may lag behind the
latest version of EFL and give you problems when trying to compile examples
from tutorials in this documentation. If this is the case, it is advised you
install a more recent version of EFL following one of the methods below.
