How to install Litecoin
I'm trying to install litecoin on my ubuntu 12.04 machine.
I downloaded the Litecoin-Qt from http://litecoin.org/ and extracted it to ~/
Then based on the README, I did the following:
oshirowanen@desktop:~/litecoin/bin/64$ ./litecoin-qt
This runs Litecoin, but it does not install it, i.e. when I click the super key on the keyboard to bring up the unity navigation and type in Litecoin, it is not found as an installed application on my computer.
So my question is, how do I install litecoin?

You don't need to install it to use it. If you are looking for ways to find it easily,
- add it to the Unity side bar
- Right click between the Ubuntu icon and the Applications menu at the top panel, select
Edit Menus. AddLiteCoinas one of the entries.
Please see the sample below

I know this is over 4 years old, however, I am replying so that people who google this issue will come across the answer. OK, so:
wget https://download.litecoin.org/litecoin-0.14.2/linux/litecoin-0.14.2-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz
cd ~ # (or your download directory for wget) (~ is your home directory)
tar -xvfz litecoin-0.14.2-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz
sudo install -m 0755 -o root -g root -t /usr/local/bin litecoin-0.14.2/bin/*
litecoind -daemon
Litecoin server starting
litecoin-cli getmininginfo
Allow it to sync.
litecoin-cli stop
