install .tar.gz packages

[aalr1986]

How do I install those? I've tried the ./configure thing, and make, make install, and the system doesn't even recognize those commands.

What should I do?

1. Decompress

tar -zxvf [filename].tar.gz

2. Try to install

And don't forget to install the build-essentials packages.

And of course all the dependencies, including -dev packages.
