I wanted a quick start so I downloaded the binary distribution:

https://www.arduino.cc/download_handler.php?f=/arduino-1.6.8-linux64.tar.xz

It's good enough for me to start with as a newbie to Arduino :-)

Thank you for the infos!

I am also new to Arduino, so here is what I did last week to install the
latest Arduino IDE 1.6.8.

I started with installing Arduino IDE 1.0.5 from GENTOO:

$ emerge arduino

It pulled in all needed dependent packages for the IDE. Look carefully
at the information displayed at the end of the emerge. You have to run

$ crossdev -s4 avr

to have the Tool-Chain for Arduino compiled.

Unfortunately I could not use IDE 1.0.5 because it didn't show some
highlighted commands in the IDE correctly. So I downloaded IDE 1.6.8 and
unzipped it in /opt. Next step was to run the installer

$ /opt/arduino-1.6.8/install.sh

To start IDE 1.6.8: /opt/arduino-1.6.8/arduino or via menu item.

Hope this helps.

Beste regards,

 This is why gentoo's ebuild for skype includes a wrapper script
 that checks for the presence of artsd or esd and uses artsdsp or
 esddsp to start skype, so that software mixing is not lost (if
 neither is present skype is started normally). I tried using

Yes, you are right. Now I can remember where I read about artsd (or 
other wrapper) for skype - it was the text after emerging skype and 
not on the skype website. Thanks for the background info!
