RAW Install Guide for Linux

There are two ways to install RAW on Linux. The easiest, and recommended, way is to use a prebuilt debian/ubuntu package (.deb file). This will work on Debian 8 and newer, Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and newer, and any similar Ubuntu-based OSes like Linux Mint.

If you are on a different OS, such as CentOS, or you want to install a version for which there is no prebuilt installer, you will need to install RAW from the source code.
