Hello Linux Geeksters. As you may know, BleachBit is an open-source, cleanup program that gets rid of the temporary files on your computer, reduces the number on unnecesary files, in order to increase the free space and the system performance. BleachBit is the Linux equivalent of the CCleaner, that runs on Windows.

In this article I will show you how to install BleachBit 1.4 on Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr, Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin, Linux Mint 17 Qiana, Linux Mint 13 Maya, Pinguy OS 14.04, Elementary OS 0.3 Freya, Peppermint Five, Deepin 2014, LXLE 14.04, Linux Lite 2.0, Debian 7 Wheezy and derivative systems.
Because it is not available via any repository or PPA, we have to download the deb package and install it via command-line. I prefer gdebi over dpkg due to the fact that it also handles dependencies.
Follow the instructions for your system exactly, in order to get a successful installation.
