How can I install qtstalker?

Question

I Wanted to install qtstalker, a stock market app on my Ubuntu 13.04.

qtsalker is not available in the Ubuntu software center and sudo-apt-get install qtsalker gives the error: Unable to locate package qtsalker.

How can I install qtstalker in Ubuntu?

Answer 1

• The name is qtstalker So why do you use qtsalker? But is will not work with the correct name since it does not exist in Ubuntu.
• The newest PPA I can find mentions Lucid (says enough does it not?)
• http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtstalker/files/qtstalker/qtstalker-0.36/ shows a .tar.gz and not a .deb So if you want to install it from source read the readme and the installation method in the tar file and use this as a reference: How do I install a .tar.gz (or .tar.bz2) file?

• qtstalker is available from 'precise'.
• I found a .DEB here: http://mirrors.ccs.neu.edu/ubuntu//pool/universe/q/qtstalker/qtstalker_0.32-3.3ubuntu1_i386.deb so might be worth a shot to try and install it in 13.04 (download it and double click the download and USC will take over).
