Hello Linux Geeksters. As you may know, Cutegram is an open-source Telegram application, similar to Sigram. It is developed in Qt5 and QML and uses the libqtelegram and the libappindicator libraries.
Like other Telegram clients for Linux, it has support for Emoji, allows the users to send data by draging it in the message window and gets integrated with the system notifications.
The latest version available is Cutegram 1.0.2, which has been released a while ago.
In this article I will show you how to install Cutegram 1.0.2 on Ubuntu 15.04, Ubuntu 14.10, Ubuntu 14.04, Linux Mint 17.1 Rebecca, Linux Mint 17 Qiana, Pinguy OS 14.04, Elementary OS 0.3 Freya, Deepin 2014, Peppermint Five, LXLE 14.04, Linux Lite 2.0, Debian Jessie, Debian Wheezy and other Ubuntu and Debian derivative systems.
Because it is not available via any repository or PPA, we have to download the cutegram deb package from the project’s website and install it via command-line. Follow the instructions for your system’s architecture exactly, in order to get a successful installation.
