 ====== Installing Diana from Launchpad ======
-Diana is available as a set of packages from Launchpad. For users of Ubuntu, installing these packages is the easiest way to install Diana.
+For users of Ubuntu, it might be easiest to install the pre-built packages for Diana and other software
+from MET Norway from the [[https://launchpad.net/~met-norway/+archive/ubuntu/metapps|MET Norway metapps PPA]].
-===== Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty) =====
+General installation instructions are given under //Adding this PPA to your system// and //Read about installing//.
-Obtain the ''apt-add-repository'' tool from the ''software-properties-common'' package:
+==== Installation Summary ====
-  sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
+You need to be able to run the ''sudo'' command to be able to install Diana packages (or any other packages).
-Add the Diana and Fimex repositories to the system:
+  sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
+  sudo apt-add-repository ppa:met-norway/fimex
+  sudo apt-add-repository ppa:met-norway/metapps
+  sudo apt-get update
-  sudo apt-add-repository ppa:diana-deployment/trusty
+  sudo apt-get install diana-3.50 ...
-  sudo apt-add-repository ppa:heiko-klein/fimex

+The version numbers might, of course, change over time.
-  sudo apt-get update
+==== First Test ====
-  sudo apt-get install diana-3.39 dianamaps metno-bufrtables
+Assuming that you installed ''diana-3.50'', you might want to test that Diana is installed correctly by running it:
+  diana.bin-3.50 -s /etc/diana/3.50/diana.setup
+Now you need to configure Diana for your workstation by editing/writing a ''diana.setup'' file.
