## Compile and install
## Installing
Try installing Firejail from your system packages first. Firejail is included in Alpine, ALT Linux, Arch, Chakra, Debian, Deepin, Devuan, Fedora, Gentoo, Manjaro, Mint, NixOS, Parabola, Parrot, PCLinuxOS, ROSA, Solus, Slackware/SlackBuilds, Trisquel, Ubuntu, Void and possibly others.
The firejail 0.9.52-LTS version is deprecated. On Ubuntu 18.04 LTS users are advised to use the [PPA](https://launchpad.net/~deki/+archive/ubuntu/firejail). On Debian buster we recommend to use the [backports](https://packages.debian.org/buster-backports/firejail) package.
You can also install one of the [released packages](http://sourceforge.net/projects/firejail/files/firejail), or clone Firejail’s source code from our Git repository and compile manually:
`````
$ git clone https://github.com/netblue30/firejail.git
$ cd firejail

For --selinux option, add libselinux1-dev (libselinux-devel for Fedora).
Detailed information on using firejail from git is available on the [wiki](https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/wiki/Using-firejail-from-git).
