Ubuntu uses the debian package management system (aka apt-get) and offers several different pike packages including version 7.2, 7.4, and 7.6. Ubuntu also divides the different pike modules into different packages but offers a meta-package for each version. This means that when you install the meta-package for the version you wish to use, all the pike modules for that version are installed at that time as well.To install Pike 7.6 at the command line, type: sudo apt-get install pike7.6
- For the above to work, you must be root or in the sudoer group.
- You may install pike through the graphical installers provided by the Ubuntu distribution.
- The package called 'pike' installs Pike 7.2
