Is there a reason I shouldn't install Frescobaldi from the tar.gz file in the release page? That's what I've been doing. I don't want to set up Flatpack on my Ubuntu system.
If you do that, keep in mind that you should also update the companion python-ly module to its latest source version from
https://github.com/frescobaldi/python-ly/ (we haven’t done a release for it yet, this is something we need to think about…).
Installing Frescobaldi from source is usually harder than most software because dependencies need to come from mixed sources. To install python-ly or frescobaldi from source, you need to use pip, but it’s important to install python-poppler-qt5 first from your distro, because if pip wants to install that itself as a dependency, it will compile it from source which might be tricky. However, if you already have a working setup, this should work fine.
