You can run notepadqq from its build output folder. If however you want to install it, first build it by following the above steps, then run
notepadqq$ sudo make install
Notepadqq might work on Qt 5.2, but it is recommended to use Qt 5.3 or later. If the newest version isn't available on your distribution, you can use the online installer to get the latest libraries and install them into your home directory ($HOME/Qt). Notepadqq will automatically use them.
To install the latest stable version:
notepadqq$ sudo snap install notepadqq
If, instead, you want to follow the (UNSTABLE) development releases:
notepadqq$ sudo snap install --edge notepadqq
You don't have the snap command? Follow the instructions at https://docs.snapcraft.io/core/install and then install Notepadqq as shown above.
You should prefer using Snap packages, which are natively supported on Ubuntu (see above). Anyway, Notepadqq is also available from an official PPA:
notepadqq$ sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:notepadqq-team/notepadqq
notepadqq$ sudo apt-get update
notepadqq$ sudo apt-get -y install notepadqq
Download a deb package from the Ubuntu PPA: download
notepadqq$ sudo dnf -y install https://rpms.remirepo.net/fedora/remi-release-$(cat /etc/os-release | grep VERSION_ID= | sed 's|VERSION_ID=||').rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(cat /etc/os-release | grep VERSION_ID= | sed 's|VERSION_ID=||').noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(cat /etc/os-release | grep VERSION_ID= | sed 's|VERSION_ID=||').noarch.rpm
