14*Notes:*

161. For Ubuntu users (or those who use derivatives like Linux Mint) who want to always have the latest version of Firejail, we also provide a `PPA`_
172. Ubuntu and Debian users: when installing Firejail from the repository or the PPA, you will probably also want to install the **firejail-profiles** package:
18
19.. code-block:: bash
20
21 sudo apt install firejail firejail-profiles

24Install directly
25--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
26While we recommend installing from your Linux distribution's repositories, there
27may be times you want to get Firejail directly from the developers.
