Dears,
as Ubuntu traditionally does lack behind with sigil versions, I (once again) did check out the instructions to build Sigil from the souce on Linux (Ubuntu).
https://github.com/Sigil-Ebook/Sigil..._on_Linux.html
This time I have packaged these instructions into a little bash shell script.
It's tested with no issues on Ubuntu 19.04 and 19.10
see 'build_on_linux.txt' attached.
(had to use txt extension to upload to this forum)
just open a terminal
make this file executable with 'chmod a+x 'build_on_linux.txt'
and run it with no parameters to give you this basic help text:
------------------------------------
Usage: build_on_linux.txt [-noaction | -action]
-noaction: show the script command flow
-action: execute the script commands in order to
check for an exising sigil installation
create build structure in the current directory
download and install required build tools
download most recent sigil sources for git hub
build sigil from sources
install sigil (default directory is '/usr/local')
------------------------------------

Thomas
