Hello Linux Geeksters. As you may know, TagSpaces is an open-source software for managing and syncing files and folders with other devices, by using tags. Via the HTML5 interface, the users are able to synchronize files on both their personal computer and external storage with ownCloud, Dropbox or Bittorrent Sync or other storage services.
The latest version available is TagSpaces 1.8, which has been recently released. For more information about this release, see the changelog.
In this article I will show you how to install TagSpaces 1.8 on Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Elementary OS, Pinguy OS, Debian, Kwheezy, Crunchbang and their derivative systems.
Because it is not available via any repository or PPA, we have to download the TagSpaces deb package for our architecture exactly and install it via the command-line. I prefer gdebi over dpkg, due to the fact that it also handles dependencies.
How to install TagSpaces 1.8 on 32 bit Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Elementary OS, Pinguy OS, Debian, Kwheezy, Crunchbang and their derivative systems:
