Fwiw it&#x27;s worth learning how to use the excellent Debian Alternatives [1] system to install stuff not in the repo&#x27;s.  Download the precompiled binary, or download the source and compile it, put in $HOME, &#x2F;opt, or wherever you want, then use update-alternatives to soft link it into the standard system directories (&#x2F;usr, &#x2F;usr&#x2F;bin, &#x2F;usr&#x2F;local, etc).  You can manage and toggle between multiple versions of the same software that way, including the repo version, and lots more benefits, see github readme below.<p>Intro:  <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.debian-administration.org&#x2F;article&#x2F;91&#x2F;Using_the_Debian_alternatives_system" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.debian-administration.org&#x2F;article&#x2F;91&#x2F;Using_the_D...</a><p>Example setup scripts:  <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;byrongibson&#x2F;scripts&#x2F;tree&#x2F;master&#x2F;install&#x2F;haskell" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;byrongibson&#x2F;scripts&#x2F;tree&#x2F;master&#x2F;install&#x2F;h...</a><p>[1]:<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wiki.debian.org&#x2F;DebianAlternatives" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wiki.debian.org&#x2F;DebianAlternatives</a>
