>From this link, I chose my platform and downloaded the tgz file https://sourceforge.net/projects/biblatex-biber/files/biblatex- biber/2.4/binaries/
ie, just clicked on the link below to get the 64 bit Linux version: https://sourceforge.net/projects/biblatex-biber/files/biblatex- biber/2.4/binaries/Linux/biber-linux_x86_64.tar.gz/download To "install" this, simply unpack it and copy the single file, biber, to your path. You could put it locally in your LaTeX source folder, or in your own bin path, or (using sudo) in /usr/bin/. This older version seems compatible with 16.04's biblatex, and I can compile my file. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Debian Perl Group, which is subscribed to biber in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1565842 Title: biber removes texlive-bibtex-extra To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/biber/+bug/1565842/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~pkg-perl-maintainers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~pkg-perl-maintainers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
