== Linux: Install latest version == If your distribution doesn't ship with Gramps or you wish to install a different version than it ships with, you could try to install the latest version of Installing Gramps manually. Instructions are given below for a number of distributions. {{man warn|1Desktops==Warning|2=This should only be attempted by experienced users, and after you have backed up your Family Tree. The version of Gramps that has been included in your distribution will have been tested Installation instructions specific to work with the components in that distribution. If you try to install a different version of Gramps there is a possibility that the components needed for the new version of Gramps OSes are not available for your distribution, or they are available, but don't work properly. You might not discover that there is a problem till you have already done some work with the new version of Gramps. If you already have Gramps installed, and you are only making a 'point' upgrade (i.e. from Gramps x.y.z to x.y.z+1, e.g. from 3.4.3 to 3.4.4), then it is likely but not certain that Gramps will continue to work. However, if the change is much greater, especially if it is a major version change (e.g. from 2.y.z to 3.y.z), then on the danger that it does not work properly is much greater.}} [[ImageFile:Debianopenlogo-32linux_32x32.png|link=Installing_Gramps_for_Linux_computers#Linux_distributions]]'''Debian''' and , [[ImageFile:Ubuntu_32x32windows_32x32.png|link=Installing_Gramps_for_Windows_computers]]''' Ubuntu ''' [http://sourceforge.net/projects/gramps/files/Stable/{{version}}/gramps_{{version}}_all.deb Download the .deb file].
