107. Ubuntu: install SuperCollider from a PPA

The easiest way of installing programs in Ubuntu is using the Ubuntu Software Center, but if a program is very new it might not be yet available there. It takes some time before programs appear in the Software Center.

But the Software Center is not the only way to install programs. Other options are using a PPA (Personal Package Archive), and compiling the program from source code.

In this episode we learn about using a PPA to install SuperCollider.
