Leo hasn't made it into the Ubuntu and related repositories, mostly
lack of developer time and developer knowledge, I don't know anything
about building packages.  At one time Ville had a PPA for some releases
of Leo, but those would be stale by now.

Anyone who wants to lead the charge on getting Leo into the Ubuntu
repos., that would be great.

Chris's instructions cover using the current development version, I
think there was a typo, should have been:

  mkdir leo
  cd leo
  git clone https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor.git

And you can also just grab
https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/archive/master.zip
and set up a script file to run launchLeo.py for that.

I guess this is all assuming some degree of familiarity with Linux
scripts (bash etc.).
