The recommended way is to install Skrooge using your distribution's package management tool.
However, if Skrooge is not yet available in repositories, you should of course bug the distro's packagers to include it, but in the mean time you can compile and install Skrooge yourself, it is not that difficult.
Ubuntu
Ubuntu's policy is not to propose the latest software versions, but rather to focus on stability. For that reason, it is possible that the Skrooge version available in official repositories is usually several versions behind the latest stable from developers.
To install Skrooge on Ubuntu from our PPA, you need to:
Kf6/Qt6 version:
- Open a terminal and enter:
Stable
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:s-mankowski/ppa-kf6
Beta
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:s-mankowski/beta-kf6
- Tell Ubuntu to re-load the details of each software archive it knows about:
sudo apt-get update
- Install Skrooge:
sudo apt-get install skrooge-kf6
Kf5/Qt5 version:
- Open a terminal and enter:
Stable
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:s-mankowski/ppa-kf5
Beta
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:s-mankowski/beta-kf5
- Tell Ubuntu to re-load the details of each software archive it knows about:
sudo apt-get update
- Install Skrooge:
sudo apt-get install skrooge-kf5

Installation
To install Skrooge, follow the instructions of the platform you are using for how to install software. Most platforms have a graphical installer which can be used to install software packages. In many cases it will automatically be opened when clicking the download or install link for your platform. There is a generic tutorial for installing KDE applications which also can be applied to Skrooge.
If you are using Linux, Skrooge might already be pre-installed on your system as part of a default selection. If not, you can install it with the package management tool of your Linux distribution. See its documentation for details.
Uninstallation
To uninstall Skrooge, follow the instructions of the package management tool you have used to install Skrooge. This will remove the Skrooge application. It will not touch data you have viewed, created, or modified with Skrooge.
