For some linux distributions we offer precompiled packages that are easily installed. If this does not apply to you you can easily compile YUView on Linux.

Ubuntu 22.04 or newer

We are in the official repo starting with 22.04. So you can just do

sudo apt install yuview

Flatpak

We are now on flatpak! If you don't have flatpak installed, please follow this setup guide for your platform. After the installation of flatpak don't forget to restart your system.

Using the command line, you can get YUView by:

flatpak install flathub de.rwth_aachen.ient.YUView

Alternatively (if you have installed a platform plugin for installing flatpacks), you can just head over to the YUView flathub page and hit the install button.

Arch

For Arch linux there is a package available in the AUR. Simply follow this link
YUView Arch Linux
and install the package by hand or via an AUR-helper. This package will take the current YUView master branch, build and install it, every time you install the package. If YUView is outdated, just install the package again. If the package from the AUR is outdated you will be notified by YUView at startup.
